RULES FOR BEING HUMAN
|
|
|
|
1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be
|
|
yours for the entire period this time around.
|
|
|
|
2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal
|
|
school called life. Each day in this school you will have the
|
|
opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them
|
|
irrelevant and stupid.
|
|
|
|
3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial
|
|
and error, experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a
|
|
part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works".
|
|
|
|
4. A lesson is repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to
|
|
you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have
|
|
learned it you can go on to the next lesson.
|
|
|
|
5. Learning lessons does not end. There is no part of life that does
|
|
not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be
|
|
learned.
|
|
|
|
6. "There" is no better than "here." When your "there" has become a
|
|
"here" you will simply obtain another "there" that will, again, look
|
|
better than "here".
|
|
|
|
7. Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something
|
|
about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or
|
|
hate about yourself.
|
|
|
|
8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and
|
|
resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice
|
|
is yours.
|
|
|
|
9. Your answers lie inside you. The answers to life's questions lie
|
|
inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
|
|
|
|
10. You will forget all this...
