GOOD READS
We all get to read a few words of wisdom here and there through forwarded e-mails that we take time to read and through newspaper/magazine clips. Some are bull while others hit the nail in the head pretty squarely. Here's something that has made me nod my pretty head more than twice.
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, his/her conversational skills will be as important as any other.
Don't believe all you hear. Spend all you have. Or sleep all you want.
When you say, "I love you," mean it.
When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.
Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
Believe in love at first sight.
Never laugh at anyone's dream. People who don't have dreams don't have much.
Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.
In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
Don't judge people by their relatives.
Talk slowly but think quickly.
When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"
Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
Say "bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
Remember the three R's--respect for one's self, respect for others, and responsibility for all your actions.
Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.
Spend some time alone.
A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
