A Creed To Live By
By Nancye Sims
Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Don't set your goals by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them life is meaningless.
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.
By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
Don't give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don't be afraid to encounter risks.
It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love.
The fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly;
and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don't dismiss your dreams.
To be without dreams is to be without hope;
to be without hope is to be without purpose.
Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been,
but also where you're going. Life is not a race,
but a journey to be savored each step of the way.

so bumping this.... I am posting in my home so I look at everyday, I really need it, I been living in the past, and looking to far ahead in the future and not living for each day. I am getting married in 30 days and all I can think about is the past and the fears from what has happen in the past.... Instead I should be glowing with joy today that I am marrying the most greatest guy ever, and I can not believe he chose me to marry so as of today no more past thinking and just go with the flow....0

Disagree in some way with these
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.
By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
Don't set your goals by what other people deem important.
Only you know what is best for you.
What a great post! 0
