Just A Thought:
10 Rules to Be Human
1️⃣ You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it’s yours to keep for the entire period.
2️⃣ You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, “life.”
3️⃣ There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The” failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately “work.”
4️⃣ Lessons are repeated until they are 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.
5️⃣ Learning lessons does not end. There’s no part of life that doesn’t contain its lessons. If you’re alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
6️⃣ “There” is no better place than “here.” When your “there” has become a “here”, you will simply obtain another “there” that will again look better than “here.”
7️⃣ Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects something you love or hate about yourself.
8️⃣ 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.
9️⃣ Your answers lie within you. The answers to life’s questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
🔟 You will forget all this at birth.

A good life is when you have a roof over your head, and food on your table.
A good life is when you feel connected to your surroundings and to the people who live there. When you politely ask your neighbour how his day was. When you just smile to people, and they smile back.
A good life is when you have time to enjoy simple things, like coffee or chocolate, on a cozy afternoon.
A good life is when you have the time and wisdom to stop and smell the roses, enjoy the sound of the rain, and experience the everyday beauty and magic of nature.
A good life is when you laugh. So don’t forget to laugh, and also to be able to laugh at yourself.
A good life is when you first try to understand why someone shouted at you, before shouting right back at them. To remember that words can hurt a lot, and it’s difficult to take them back.
A good life is when you and your loved ones are all healthy, living in love and enjoying every single day together.
A good life is when you have peace in your life, in your mind, and in your heart.
Living a better life is an internal exercise. It’s about me, what I do, how I see my life, and how I react to what happens every day.
