Be careful who you trust

Life can change in an instant- make sure you take time to enjoy the here and now

Never depend on anyone to provide for you- make sure you have the tools/skills to be self sufficient

What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger

Re: Life Lessons to live by...share yours

* we teach people how to treat us

* no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn't stop for your grief

* credentials on a wall don't make you a decent human being

* trust in God, but lock your doors

* life is what happens while your busy making other plans

wonderful thread. it's brought a tear to my eye

Good things come to those who wait, as long as they work hard while they wait.

Treat others as you would want to be treated

Always answer the phone with a smile on your face

Always tell someone how you feel, hug and kiss them a lot, you never know what may happen

Pick your battles

Laugh often

This is a GREAT THREAD!!!!!



I agree! Especially with this one. It happened to me. Thankfully our last conversation was full of love.

Also- don't sweat the small stuff.

Surround yourself with people who bring you up in life.

Re: Life Lessons to live by...share yours

Many times, what we dislike in others is a reflection of ourselves.

Don't try to change people. Change your own mind instead.

True love means accepting the good and especially the bad.

Hard times show you who your friends are.

Compromising means putting down your pride for the greater good. Even if you know you're right.

Living with someone before you marry them is a good way to learn these lessons before you make a lifetime committment.

No one can MAKE you mad. You choose to be mad and allow that emotion.

You cannot control other people's actions but you can control your REaction.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Figure out who you are and be you. Trying to be anyone else is just like trying to fool yourself.

Take joy in the smaller things in life. Then you can find joy in every day.

It's good to have goals but don't hang all your hopes and fears on them. What happens in between the goals is more important.

Oh, I like this one....

1. Treat people the way you want to be treated.

2. The grass ISN'T always greener on the otherside

3. There will always be someone who has less than you and someone who has more. So be grateful for what YOU have.

I actually got this one from a Bazooka Joe comic back in the day...


"The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence...

.... until you look over & realize its only astroturf."

Re: Life Lessons to live by...share yours

you need to spend money to make money

always be self sufficient- never rely on others!


pick your battles

kill 'em with kindness

keep your friends close and your enemies closer

when in doubt, shut the F up (my own rule)

kiss you husband often (my own rule)

when it comes between spending time with your husband snuggling or doing something for yourself, spend the time snuggling (my own rule)

a drink never hurts

hear everything. trust no one.

Re: Life Lessons to live by...share yours

Everything happens for a reason

There no regrets, just lessons to learn

Don't let other people make their issues my issues

Always celebrate the good news, and it's okay to take time to cry about bad news but don't let it stop you from moving forward

Live Life to it's fullest

Don't dwell on the small stuff

Re: Life Lessons to live by...share yours

A life lived for others is a life worth lived

You'll less likely regret the things you did in life, but almost always regret the things you didn't do!

Money is not everything, but it's good enough until you get everything!Chat Icon (DH favorite)

Marry a man that treats the woman in his life like a queen, because that's how he'll treat you (mom's favorite!)

I agree with the don't eat yellow snow thing.

I also firmly believe that whoever denied it, supplied it.

Don't sweat the small stuff

Climb the ladder of success but never step on anyone to get there

POR (press on regardless)
*from a college professor who told us during our thesis, when we are stumped or facing a hard time P-O-R.

All that glitters isn't gold

Don't hold grudges with family

Never be too busy for family

Think before you speak

Loose lips, sink ships

Choose your battles wisely

Don't try to "keep up with Joneses"
There will always people who have more than you and plenty of people who have less
