Rules for being human

You will receive a body. You may like it or not but it will be yours the whole time.

You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full time informal school called Life. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn. You may like the lessons or you may hate the lessons but you will have little choice anyway.

There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial and error, experimentation. The 'failed' experiment is as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately works.

A lesson is repeated until learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, then you can go to the next lesson.

Learning lessons does not end. There is no part of life that does not contain its lessons. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.

There is no better there than here. When your there becomes here you will simply obtain another there that will again look better than here.

Others are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate in yourself.

What you make of your life is up to you. You have the tools and resources that you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.

Your answers lie inside of you. The answers to life's questions lie inside of you. All you need to do is look, listen and trust.

You will forget all this
