Life is the educational university to learn to forgive all things.

• Make a commitment to yourself of your intention for the day (To be loving, peaceful, etc.)
• If something yucky happens, stop, forgive your judgments and choose again for what you want.
• Remember the basics: Rest when tired, eat when hungry, drink when thirsty and move when stuck.
• Laugh at your silliness and mistakes.
• Smile at strangers, expecting nothing, but enjoying their return smile.
• Look for the little gifts of kindness from yourself and others.
• Commit to loving you and loving others all day everyday.
• Be patient with the neediness you may see and give what you can without sacrifice.
• Be cool and calm when people flare up in anger, fear or defensiveness.
• Forgive your judgments of others so you can see all things new again each moment.
• When you forget to be loving, just let it go with "Uh Oh! I forgive myself for forgetting."
• End each day with gratitude for all you are and what you do, always Loving YOU!
• And appreciate how you too, can have a good life!
