I love these... but I am a work in progress.
SIX CARDINAL RULES ABOUT LIFE
- Make peace with your past so it doesn't spoil your present.
- What other people think of you is none of your business.
- Give it time. Time heals almost everything.
- No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
- Don't compare your life to others or judge them. You haven't made their journey.
- Happiness is not a state to arrive at, but a manner of traveling.
THE FOUR AGREEMENTS
- Be impeccable with your word
- Don't take anything personally
- Never assume
- Do your best.

I read it as you are the only one in charge of your own happiness
I also am a work in progress. I also remember and am supremely grateful to that tiny band of people who have helped me through the worst of times. One of them is on this site.
