I don't like to "blurb" about myself. I like who I am, I respect who I am, and I look forward to getting to know things about myself that I don't already know... Blurbing minute details about myself; details that only those who already know me will appreciate, seems, for lack of a better descriptor, like a bad idea. However... one minute particular about me is that I don't like leaving anything blank, so I will fill this section with some rules of thumb that I try to live my life by. They help me to understand things that are incomprehensible, solve unsolvable problems, be patient with the most irritating people, and learn, when learning seems, at most, futile.The Rules for Being Human1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire period this time around.2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a fulltime informal school called life. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid.3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error, experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately "works."4. A lesson is repeated until 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 is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive there are lessons to be learned.6. "There" is no better than "here." When your "there" has become a "here" you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."7. Others 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. The choice is yours.9. Your answers lie inside you. The answer to life's questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.10. This will often be forgotten, only to be remembered again.(Cherie Carter-Scott)If you want to look up other little pick-me up quotations, you can find them here:http://www.creativegrowth.com/qquotes.htm#On_Livin
gAnd, although cliche and well known, I truly believe with all my heart that everything happens for a reason. All lessons have purposes, if only you look deep enough. So if there's ever something that you can't get to the bottom of, just put it aside... I'm sure that in time you will figure it out.
