I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
Groucho Marx

Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.

I have learnt to work to find something in everyone to like (difficult at times)

I have learnt to value the naive and stupid (how else would I know I have a brain).

I have learnt to pity my enemies and to be kind to them (makes me a better person)

I have learnt to esteem the intelligent (would not know anything without them)

I have learnt not to play games with others (makes me a lesser person)

I have learnt to dance in the rain (makes me a stronger person)

I have learnt not to pretend that I don't care (it speaks very loudly that I do)

Most of all, I have learnt that people accuse others of what they are guilty of themselves.

Good One Terri!
Yes, that one finger pointing forward as three point back ......
I get that more as I keep watching and looking back when I feel like pointing.
A hard trick to get the hang of; one I picked up from reading Byron Katie's books which are not as outlandish as they at first seem.
This one being a cool trick to get at one's own blind spots.

yep, I can still see my daddy telling me and showing me with his hand,
that if you point a finger at others three more are pointing back at you.

but most importantly I have learned , who are we to judge who is really naive and stupid , or INtelligent

we may be fooled big time,
those that seem naive, stupid are not at all, as those that seem intelligent MIght JUSssssssttttttt fool ya too.
WINK
judge not lest ye be judged

today I learned never to pay someone for a JOB, until its is all done.
if YOU do they are very slack about finishing it.

i HAVE a real bad habit of doing this,
AND i MADe a promise , to myself NOT to ever do this again.

today I learned, that it really does pay off to forgive.
Not only did I forgive,
but I now have one of the most beautiful friends,
I have ever met on the internet.
