Ten Rules for Being Human
by Cherie Carter-Scott
|
1. |
You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period. |
|
2. |
You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life." |
|
3. |
There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work." |
|
4. |
Lessons are repeated until they are 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's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned. |
|
6. |
"There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here." |
|
7. |
Other people 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.
|
|
9. |
Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust. |
|
10. |
You will forget all this. |
