Do you have a 'philosopy' or a 'motto' that you try to live by...
 

..in life..?..

Indeed.

Live and let live.

Stay Positive
make sure you can relax

Forget about the past and look to the future

Trust no one not even yourself lol

I renamed my house 'Fookem Hall' does that give you a clue as to my motto? :laugh:

hah i hope that's for real that's brilliant

I have this framed in my hall and I pretty much try to live by it..


desiderata - by max ehrmann

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
Max Ehrmann c.1920

What Would Arista Do.

That's how I live my life.

Treat others as you would like to be treated

:Vanessaeyebrowsmiley:

trust noone

keep buggering on

life is meaningless and brief

Thomas Edison is probably the most poignant at the moment

"I have not failed, I've just found 1,000 ways that won't work"

:devil:how are you today Jesus:hugesmile:

:joker:LT you're so optimistic:hugesmile:

I am a realist. I picked up a stone this morning and it was older than humanity by a long way. I looked at the mountains that will be there long long after 100 generations of LT will have died.

There was a large like 6 foot eagle type dino that lived for about 5 times longer than humans have (its obv extinct) so it illustrates how brief a time we have been on this old rock and all the things that have been before.

I'm good, thanks Kaz. I have lamb in the oven with some roast pots, and all is well with the world. It's a really beautiful day, so may take a drive to Malvern this afternoon.

How is sunny shrops?

Really sunny here,and Malvern is a lovely day out,I do like Worcester as a whole,very pretty place.what will you be doing there?

We are lucky most of us to have this opportunity to enjoy it all.:hugesmile:

and a whole week of dry Spring weather ahead. The primroses are out and the Oyster Catchers are peeping away. :spin:

torn between which of these two mottos to adopt.

It will pass (Referring to trying times).

..I like that, Marsh and it's so very true...

Not a great one if you are a history teacher
