RULES TO LIVE BY

We all have to live 

As if we were to die tomorrow.

Today is the best day of our lives.

It's a precious gift.

As the best preparation for tomorrow lies

performing our best today.

We all have to love like a great soul,

Which never dies.

As love serves everyone all the time

and it brings us together again and again.

We all have to master the knowledge 

Of forgiving and forgetting,

Which leads to no revenge and no regret.

As the bravest thing is the first to apologize.

The strongest thing is the first to forgive.

The happiest thing is the first to forget.

Let's go of what's bitter and move on.

We all have to learn to forgive ourselves

And unhand the goods and chattels.

Enjoy the journey 

And embrace the destination 

When we get there.
