Lessons to Remember in Life

I was looking at the local newsletter there this evening that my Mum brought home and on the back, there were some really uplifting and inpirational sayings, or lessons if you like. I think they are worth sharing and thinking about it. Hope they inspire you as much as they did for me.

1. Life isn't fair but its still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will.

5. Pay off your credit cards each month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. Its more healing than crying alone.

8. Its OK to get angry with God. He can take it...

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't mess up your present.
