Twelve New Life Commandments

Every day my inbox fills up with many e-mails I glance at and delete. Every once in a awhile, something comes through that makes me stop and really read and think about what is being said. With the political storm that is rushing through our country at the moment, I wanted to share something that would touch you on a deep and personal level. We all need those moments of self reflection to see how we are doing in this life. What kind of person am I? What choices do I make daily that affect me, my family or the world? Am I happy or I am making my own unhappiness by the things I do? So, here are Twelve New Commandments to observe in your life, that will hopefully make a positive difference in how you live and how you interact with others.

    What beautiful thoughts! I think it's so nice to sit back and reflect on life, I was nodding in agreement when you were talking about the baj-illions of emails we get, but it's our attitudes that can/can't make them special. Someone thought enough to send them onto us- it's nice to think optimistically about it. Thanks for the uplift!

    I am hanging in there trying to surround myself with positive things/thoughts. Taking each day as it comes and trying not to focus too far in the future is also helping me a lot! Thanks for asking!

    Thank you Sheila. I hope it is ok with you..I am using your Commandments in my class tonight as a sample of creating one's own Life Codes. It is time in our changing world to get back to what really counts. Blessings to you and your family.
