Hi Sweetheart!

  • Dump your personal myths about being tough and aggressive in order to get ahead in life. Giving and loving are not signs of weakness.
  • At least twice a day, say to someone, -'May be I'm wrong' whether or not you are in error.
  • Go out of your way to express your affection and admiration for family and make a point of accepting any tenderness they show you. Regularly buy a thoughtfully chosen gift for them.
  • Make a conscious effort to employ understanding and forgiveness when you encounter people you don't like.
  • Take time out everyday to examine and appreciate something beautiful.

Dear Reader, I invite you to add your very own tips for living life beautifully in this feature.

Life's Like That! - Treasures from my old diary

Bad facts about life:
  1. Life isn't fair, always.
  2. For every 'why me', there is an equal and opposite 'why not me?'
  3. No matter how bright, charming and lovable you are, everybody is not going to like you all the time, leave alone love you forever.
  4. From time to time, it will always rain on your parade.
  5. Every now and then, no matter how smart you think you are, you will do something terribly dumb.

Good facts about life:

  1. Unless you are exceptionally unlucky, life is nearly quite fair most of the times.
  2. A lot of the times you will not have to ask the question 'why me?'
  3. No matter how ill-deserved it is, luck is a dumb thing; once it comes it usually stays for a while. Sometimes it overstays too!
  4. most of the time other people are too dumb to really remember you stupidities.
  5. Nothing is so bad that it can't get worse.
