What I've learned so far - Part Four

It's interesting to me how timely some of the points are today (this list has been written and on paper for many years and I'm following the exact order in which they have been written - no sorting)  I always consider this kind of symmetry to mean I'm in the right place in my life.  When old wisdom meets current living - it's comforting to me.  Hope some of this is interesting to you in some way.

31) Don't assume the world is the way you see it.  Everyone's reality is different

32) Stop expecting your parents to be perfect.  Forgive their mistakes as you would ask yours to be forgiven.  They are human.  You will make many mistakes too.

33) Be willing to consider you're wrong sometimes.  Be willing to consider criticism, take it or reject it - but consider it first

34) FLAWS - we all have 'em  - find a way to laugh at yourself rather than feeling you have to fix or defend them.

35) Everything does not happen for a reason.  Bad things happen to good people, but something good can come even of tragedy if you choose to look for it.

36) For every death - a new life is created

37) Ask yourself what you want and listen to the answer with the same interest you would to a dear friends answer.

38) Give sincerely, never expect back

39) Change is often as good as a rest

40) Listen to other peoples opinions - DECIDE for yourself
