Re: What motto do you live by?
 
I bust my ass to try to live up to St Francis' Prayer and fall short daily.
It's my favorite.
Lately, I've been getting a lot of mileage out of "That's the fuggin' way she goes."
And one of my all-time favorutes...
"If You Would Make A Man Truly Happy, Do Not Add To His Possessions, But Subtract From The Sum Of His Desires."
That quote is from 3000 years ago.
I like Vince Lombardi's quote...
"The quality of a man's life is in direct proportion to his commitment to excellence, regardless of his chosen field of endeavor."
It's all good stuff. :tu

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like unto it: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself.’

I'd say I try to live by this motto, not successful most of the time.

There's one for that, too.
"It's not how many times you fall down, it's how many times you pick yourself up." :)
I'm finding it easier and easier to Love everyone. I just don't like some of them. :D
Being we're made in His image, I don't think He expects a whole lot, anyways. I bet somedays He's surprised we're all still here. :)
I do know that despite my best efforts, I still spend a lot of time asking for forgiveness. :(

I think I'd go to jail for loving my neighbor that way. :r

A lot of people say, "May Joy inhabit your life". Having lived a while now, I now say that the world belongs to those who take Joy with them...aside quietly and ask: "B-tch wheres my money?"

Hanlon: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

Heinlein: Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig.

Lincoln: Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.

At least today is not my day in the barrel.
It is better to dream of tomorrow, than dwell in the past.
Everyday is a holiday.

The sun even shines on a dog's ass occasionally.

Some days you are the hammer. Some days you are the nail.

The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

One of the best ways to make yourself happy is to make other people happy; One of the best ways to make other people happy is to be happy yourself.
