Personal diary 2007

No reference, written on Thursday 18 January 2007.
Opera Tenor Jan Peerce, after he was married nearly fifty years, once said, “My wife and I made a pact a long time ago, and we’ve kept it no matter how angry we’ve grown with each other. When one yells, the other should listen- because when two people yell, there is no communication, just noise and bad vibrations.”

Way to Happiness
The way to happiness: keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little, and give much. Fill your life with love. Scatter sunshine. Forget self, think of others. Do as you would like to be done to you. Try this and you will be surprised. ~ Dr Norman Vincent Peale.

Last wish of a mother 26 January 2007
 A mother at the time of death, called her boy to her bed-side and said to him, “I want you to promise me two things – that you will never smoke and drink.” The boy made that promise to his dying mother and the promise was never broken. That boy was Abraham Lincoln, the popular president of America who abolished slavery.

Something impressive but no reference
Do not neglect life
Do not neglect life, discover it.
Know what it is.
By feeling depressed or feeling lost, you cannot mend it.
Do not envy others’ life.
Measure your own strength.
Discover your own talents and inclination.
Your path is that which seems natural to you.
One which you can follow without making special efforts and one which you are drawn or attracted to in a natural way.

By following this rule, you will be what you should be in your life.
