This Piece From Regina Brett Got Me Motivated by ayobami52(m): 8:37am On Jun 28, 2016 |
Good morning nairalanders, I will like to share with us this piece from a palmchatter's status, read it and be blessed _Written by *Regina Brett*, 90 years old, of the Plain b Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio_ _To celebrate growing older, I once wrote few lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written._ 1. *Life isn't fair, but it's still good.* 2. *When in doubt, just take the next small step.* 3. *Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will.* 4. *You don't have to win every argument. Stay true to yourself.* 5. *Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.* 6. *It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.* 7. *Make peace with your past so it won't mess up the present.* 8. *Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.* 9. *Take a deep breath every now and then. It calms the mind.* 10. *Get rid of anything that isn't useful. Clutter weighs you down in many ways.* 11. *Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.* 12. *It's never too late to be happy. But it’s all up to you and no one else.* 13. *When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.* 14. *Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy clothes. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.* 15. *No one is in charge of your happiness but you.* 16. *Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'* 17. *Always choose life.* 18. *Forgive others and yourself.* 19. *What other people think of you is none of your business.* 20. *Time heals almost everything. Give time a little time.* 21. *However good or bad a situation is, it will change.* 22. *Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.* 23. *Believe in miracles.* 24. *God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.* 25. *Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.* 26. *Growing old beats the alternative of dying young.* 27. *Your children get only one childhood.* 28. *All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.* 29. *Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.* 30. *Envy is waste of time. Accept what you already have, not what you need.* 31. *The best is yet to come...* 32. *No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.* 33. *Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."* Cc.
