guidelines for living

3 Jan

I am a list-maker, not a rule-maker, so resolutions are not my thing. Instead, I will continue to focus on this list of guidelines for living my life.

  1. Zen Buddhism: “Be present in the moment.”
  2. The Golden Rule: “Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful.”
  3. Occam’s Razor: ”All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best.”

What are yours?

    Everyday is a gift,
    Be grateful
    assume nothing
  • First, do no harm.
  • My Feet firmly on the ground.
    My Eyes on the path ahead.
    My Mind on what might be behind the horizon.

    Always look on the bright side of life.

    I am also pondering 'consume less, create more' at the moment.
  • I. Be as steady as a rock and as fluid as the river.
    II. Stop and think, then respond.

    Hm. The rule I want to live by this year is: I can't read or write between the lines and I neither speak nor understand subtext. If you have something to say to me, say it plainly, and I'll do the same.
