1. Be kind.

3. Reach out.
4. Forgive.
5. Hug often.
6. Stop saving that wine for a special occasion. Pop that cork and celebrate now.
7. Focus on those that love you.
8. Celebrate.
9. Giggle more. (Yes guys can giggle too)
10. Be blessed.
I think if you live one through nine, ten will happen without effort...
ReplyDeletewonderful post my friend :)
Good advice. I need to put some of these into practice more... Well, the giggling part I'll have to work on when I'm on my own... in a locked room... that's sound-proofed.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, time is to short!
ReplyDelete#1,#2, and #4 are difficult, especially if you're an angsty-teen like me. But then again, being angsty-teen must mean I'm always looking for something else in life which is probably why i can't enjoy it right now.
ReplyDeleteI don't giggle, I chuckle.
ReplyDeleteAnd this post made me smile, not grin like an idiot.
rather good lessons - especially 6..
ReplyDeleteThat photo makes me want to be at that place. I love your list! Beautiful!
ReplyDelete@ David ~ agreed and thank you
ReplyDelete@ Vinny ~ I have to witness you giggling, could you video tape and post on YouTube for me? Thanks
@ Gizzy58 ~ Indeed it is
@ Leila ~ now is the time to take those on, be the change you wish to see in the world.
@ Ant ~ Giggle/Chuckle all the same right? ;~)
@ David M. ~ Absolutely!
@ Linda ~ We had a great hike there on Father's Day. Thank you.
Those falls are beautiful. Your list is also beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the reminder! I'm struggling with some of these lately but I need to remember that things could always be worse. Number 7 is my favorite. Sometimes my focus is on those who have hurt my feelings when I should just enjoy the fact that I'm blessed to have so many who love me. Love and Hugs to you Nubian!
