TAKING LIFE TOO SERIOUSLY OR NOT ENOUGH? 8 comments

23 Feb 2005 @ 16:44, by Marie Southern What happens to you when you take life too seriously or not serious enough? You become ill,physically,mentally, emotionally and spiritually.So how do we get our lives on the right medium path? Below are some ideas I found on the internet, but some I came up with. Take time out every day,a few minutes is all you need if thats all you have. Let yourself and others have some quality time together. Shut off the tv,sit comfortably,keep distractions out and really communicate. Ask questions to each other,ask them to elaborate on their answers. Feelings of each one is important,find out how their feeling about school,work,their projects, friends and family situations, etc.If you can take the whole family out to dinner,movie or just a drive once a week or a month depending on when you can get away. One hour a week isn't so much when you think about the importance of healing someone you love. Remember to tell them you love them,by talking,hugging and doing things together. For those who you can't see in person,send email or a real letter of love,encouragement and friendship. You just might get some of that right back! ------------------------------------------------------------- Internet list: Set goals and keep them but don’t be rigid. If you make a list of ten things to do in a day, be happy if you got the first three done. Stand up for yourself when you know you are right. You never lose respect when you are willing to stand up for what you feel is right. Never speak harsh words to those you love. Volunteer your time to something you love or a cause you believe in. Work at making and keeping your friends. Your work will be there waiting when you’re done playing. You feel what you feel- happiness, sadness, anger. Don’t suppress them. Instead find a suitable outlet and vent them. Never go to sleep angry. Never eat when you are angry or upset. Wear only comfortable clothes that you feel and look good in. Be kind to animals and children. Be sure to say I love you to all those you really do love. Strive to be happy.
