The Rules For Being Human

I just read this out of a book and I had to write them out in a blog right away. The book does not give an author to these rules.

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 around.

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 opporunity 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 it is learned: : A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it you can go on to the next lesson.

5) Learning lessons does not end: There is not part of life that does not conatain lessons. If you are alive, there are always lessons to be learned.

6) "There" is no better than "here" : When your "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 to you 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) The answers lie inside you: The answers to life's questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen and trust.

10) YOU WILL FORGET ALL THIS
