My purpose in life.

by Janine Meyer   May 19, 2008


Do not associate with people you can not trust.
Do not cheat.
Do not lie.
Do not pretend.
Do not dictate because you are smarter.
Do not demand because you are stronger.
Do not date because you are desperate.
Do not marry because you are miserable.
Do not have kids because you think your genes are superior.
Do not philander because you think you are irresistible.
Do not sleep around because you think you are old enough, Or think you knnow better.
Do not hurt your kids because loving them is harder.
Do not sell yourself, your family, or your ideals.
Do not stagnate!
Do not regress.
Do not live in the past.
Time can not bring anything or anyone back.
Do not put your life on hold for the possiblity of Mr Right.
Do not throw your life away on absolutely Mr Wrong because you feel your biological clock is ticking.
Learn a new skill.
Find a new friend.
Start a new career.
Sometimes, there is no race to be won,
only a price to be paid for some of lifes more hasty decisions.
To terminate your loneliness, reach out to the homeless.
To feed your nurturing instincts, care for the needy.
To fulfill your parenting fantasies, get a kitten.
Do not bring another life into this world for all the wrong reasons.
To make yourself happy, pursue your passions and be the best of what you can be.
Simplify your life. Take away the clutter.
Get rid of destructive elements: abusive friends, nasty habits, and dangerous liaisons.
Do not abandon your responsibilities but do not overdose on duty.
Do not live life recklessly without thought and feeling for your family.
Always be true to yourself.
Do not commit when you are not ready.
Do not keep others waiting needlessly.
Go on that trip. Do not postpone it.
Say those words. Do not let the moment pass.
Do what you have to, even at society's scorn.
Write poetry.
Love Deeply.
Walk barefoot.
Dance with wild abandon.
Cry at the movies.
Take care of yourself.
Do not wait for someone to take care of you.
You light up your life.
You drive yourself to your destination.
No one completes you - except YOU.
It is not true that life does not get easier with age.
It only gets more challenging.
Don't be afraid. Do not lose your capacity to love.
Pursue your passions.
Live your dreams.
Do not lose faith.
Do not grow old before your time.
Just grow YOU!
