My mom just sent me this in an email. Figured I'd make a thread for all tidbits of wisdom, inspirational thoughts, etc. I like a lot of what's said here -- even if it is spam.


1. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk,
smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

About what is going on in your life.

3. When you wake up in the morning complete the following
statement, 'My purpose is to__________ today. I am thankful for______________'

4. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less
food that is manufactured in plants.

5. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild
Alaskan salmon, broccoli , almonds & walnuts.

6. Try to make at least three people smile each day.

7. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires,
Issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control.
Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment; People love
Gossip though, so you must be careful!

like a college kid with a maxed out charge card.

Their journey is all about.

Years, will this matter?'

17. Forgive everyone for everything.

18. What other people think of you is none of your business.

19. GOD heals everything - but you have to ask Him.

20. However good or bad a situation is, it will change; you
hope!

21. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your

that sounds like a horrible dish

6. Try to make at least three people smile each day.

True, but can I still hate the game?

12. You are not so important that you have to win every
Argument. Agree to disagree.
You might not be, but I am !

13. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present
The quickest path to peace is obliteration of one party, therefore I am planning on pursuing amnesia.

...and the local "Director of Happiness" named Adam

In that case, shouldn't I also frame every so-called victory with the same words.

If you want a situation to change, you should act, not hope.

21. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your

But my job will pay the medical bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nap just got bumped about 12 spots higher in my "100 coolest people list."

Since my last post, my mom now thinks you are totally cool as well.

Hence, you can now display the bumper sticker "Wudda's Mom <3s Me".

After reading the Draco Malfoy blast from the past, I started reading other old posts. I know it might just be because I am conceded, but this one still makes me smile.
