My Granny Lady of wisdom

My granny is an open-minded lady with elegance and wisdom in her air when she speaks and her choice of e-mails to forward.

In her retired life, she spends quite a lot of time e-mailing "word of wisdom" to me. A few weeks ago, she sent me seventeen sentences for better life.

And here they are:

1. You do not have to win every argument.  Agree to disagree.

2. No one is in charge of your happiness except you .

3. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"

4. Forgive everyone for everything.

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

6. Time heals almost everything.  Give time, time.

7. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

8. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick.  Your friends will.  Stay in touch.

9. Let go of anything that is not useful, beautiful or joyful.

10. Envy is a waste of time.  You already have all you need .

11. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

12. Do the right thing RIGHT.

13.Call your family often.
 
14. Each night before you go to bed complete the following statements:  "I am thankful for __________."  Today I accomplished _________.

15. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

16. Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and you certainly do not want a fast pass.  You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy the ride .

17. The BEST  is yet to come !

May your troubles be less, May your blessings be more.  And may nothing
but happiness come through your door !
