These are from the book THE FOUR AGREEMENTS.   I am putting them on here because I think they are wonderful reminders of what we as humans strive to be.  Naturally, we all forget about it, and make mistakes.  I try to read this everyday lately, and it really helps me to deal with the world.  Take care and good luck!

THE FOUR AGREEMENTS

BE IMPECCABLE WITH YOUR WORD.

Speak with integrity.  Say only what you mean.  Avoid using the word to speak against yourself  or to gossip about others.  Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

DON'T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY

Nothing others do is because of you.  What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream.  When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

DON'T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS

Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want.  Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama.  With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

ALWAYS DO YOUR BEST

Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick.  Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

Thanks, and I hope this helps you get through each day!

This is one of my favorite short prayers, kind of covers it all. 

Glory be to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.  Amen.
