556.0. "The Rules For Being Human" by LDYBUG::GOLDMAN (Support Wildlife. Throw a party) Thu Aug 04 1988 12:15

	A friend shared this with me, and I thought it might be appropriate
    to this conference. (I was actually surprised it wasn't here already
    - I tried to find it and couldn't!).  I know it went up on my wall
    with some other poems/miscellaneous sayings I find inspirational.

		          THE RULES FOR BEING HUMAN


          1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate
             it, but it will be yours for the entire period this
             time round.

          2. 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
             lessons. You may like the lessons or think them
             irrelevant and stupid.

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

          4. 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, you can then
             go on to the next lesson.

          5. 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.

          6. "THERE" is no better than "HERE". When you're
             "THERE" has become a "HERE", you will simply obtain
             another "THERE" that will again look better than
             "HERE".

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

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

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

          10.You will forget all this.

          11.You can remember it whenever you want or need to.
