THEN LAUGH...
Build for yourself a strong box
Fashion each part with care
When its as strong as your hand can make it
Put all your troubles there.
Hide there all thought of your failures
And each bitter cup that you quaff
Lock all your heartaches within it
Then sit on the lid and laugh.
Tell no one else its contents
Never its secrets tell
When you've dropped in your care and worry
Keep them forever there.
Hide them from sight so completely
That the world will never dream half;
Fasten the strong box securely
Then sit on the lid and laugh.

APPROACH LIFE WITH A SMILE
Understand that no one is more important than you are and that no one is less important...
Understand that you are unique, and that you have a unique contribution to make to this world...
Realize that there are no mistakes in life, only lessons...
Practice what you preach; walk your talk...
Adapt to change quickly...
See problems as challenges, and press on with a smile...
Pace yourself, one moment at a time...
Laugh...
See finish lines, rather that deadlines...
Understand that life is 10% what happens to us, and 90% how we react to it...
Nurture your sense of humor... instead of no humor, no creativity... know humor and know creativity...
Use your imagination to come up with new possibilities...
Say What if... instead of Yeah but...
And remember...
Yesterday is the past...
Tomorrow the future...
but TODAY is the present...
So open it and live it!
