| from the web | |||||||||
| Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk. When you lose, don't lose the lesson. Always follow the three Rs: Respect for self, Respect for others Responsibility for all your actions. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck. Learn the rules so you break them properly. Spend some time alone every day. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer. Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality. Be gentle with the earth. Once a year go someplace you've never been. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it. Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon. |
