Lotus rules to live by

JeffreyJeffrey Veteran
edited July 2011 in General Banter
ONE . GIVE PEOPLE MORE THAN THEY EXPECT AND DO IT CHEERFULLY .

TWO . MARRY A MAN/WOMAN YOU LOVE TO TALK TO . AS YOU GET OLDER,
THEIR CONVERSATIONAL SKILLS WILL BE AS IMPORTANT AS ANY OTHER .

THREE . DON'T BELIEVE ALL YOU HEAR, SPEND ALL YOU HAVE OR SLEEP ALL
YOU WANT .

FOUR . WHEN YOU SAY, 'I LOVE YOU,' MEAN IT .

FIVE . WHEN YOU SAY, 'I'M SORRY,' LOOK THE PERSON IN THE EYE .

SIX . BE ENGAGED AT LEAST SIX MONTHS BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED .

SEVEN . BELIEVE IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT .

EIGHT . NEVER LAUGH AT ANYONE'S DREAMS . PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE
DREAMS DON'T HAVE MUCH .

NINE . LOVE DEEPLY AND PASSIONATELY . YOU MIGHT GET HURT BUT IT'S
THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE LIFE COMPLETELY .

TEN . . IN DISAGREEMENTS, FIGHT FAIRLY . NO NAME CALLING .

ELEVEN . DON'T JUDGE PEOPLE BY THEIR RELATIVES .

TWELVE . TALK SLOWLY BUT THINK QUICKLY .

THIRTEEN! . . . WHEN SOMEONE ASKS YOU A QUESTION YOU DON'T WANT TO
ANSWER, SMILE AND ASK, 'WHY DO YOU WANT TO KNOW?'

FOURTEEN . REMEMBER THAT GREAT LOVE AND GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS INVOLVE
GREAT RISK .

FIFTEEN . SAY 'BLESS YOU' WHEN YOU HEAR SOMEONE SNEEZE .

SIXTEEN . . WHEN YOU LOSE, DON'T LOSE THE LESSON .

SEVENTEEN . REMEMBER THE THREE R'S: RESPECT FOR SELF; RESPECT FOR
OTHERS; AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL YOUR ACTIONS .

EIGHTEEN . DON'T LET A LITTLE DISPUTE INJURE A GREAT FRIENDSHIP .

NINETEEN . WHEN YOU REALIZE YOU'VE MADE A MISTAKE, TAKE IMMEDIATE
STEPS TO CORRECT IT .

TWENTY . . Smile when picking up the phone . The caller will hear
it in your voice .

TWENTY- ONE . SPEND SOME TIME ALONE .
