Divagações II

Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to. Try to get enough sleep. Dream more while you are awake. Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts. Try to make at least three people smile each day. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a college kid with a maxed out charge card. Smile and laugh more. It will keep the energy vampires away. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about. Burn the candles, use the nice bed sheets, Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special. No one is in charge of your happiness except you. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?" Forgive everyone for everything. What other people think of you is none of your business. Time heals almost everything. Give it time. However good or bad a situation is, it will change. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. The best is yet to come. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. Do the right thing! Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and you certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.
