Seven simple rules

Jan 02, 2005 05:39

A long time ago, in my very early adulthood, I came up with my own little set of commandments. These are my personal "Thou shalts" and "Thou shalt nots"...

Break No Laws
Make No Enemies
Tell No Lies

Mind Your Business
Mind Your Temper
Mind Your Tongue

and above all...

Do No Harm

To me, the most important things in life are freedom and happiness, and the best way to preserve both is to avoid trouble - trouble with other people, and trouble with the law. Following these simple rules, I have stayed out of trouble my whole adult life. I think they can do the same thing for just about anyone. :-)
