My Credo

Like any human being, I have sought the purpose and meaning of life. I have perused religious writings, seeking knowledge and inspiration. When the archaic words and rules did not provide what I had hoped for, I turned to my own experiences to ascertain why I am alive. Though I have not yet figured out the point of my existence, I have learned some good rules to follow that will improve my existence while I do, in fact, still exist:

*Take chances, because that chance may be your last. Remember that you only live once: so why not get the full experience of life while you still can?
*Do not hurt anyone, including yourself. If an action is not hurting anyone, it cannot be bad.
*Find the middle ground. Moderation is the key to happiness.
*Treat yourself and others with respect. Everyone deserves to be treated nicely and with compassion and respect. Respect yourself: don’t be overly critical of yourself, and don’t trash your body with harmful substances such as drugs or junk food.
*Think critically and always strive to learn more. Being educated provides you with many opportunities to get the most out of life and a higher understanding of the world around you.
*Don’t worry about things that you cannot change or control. This needless worrying will accomplish nothing and only make the situation worse.
*Make sure to be happy and have fun. Happiness requires a conscious effort. You only have one life to live, so you might as well have fun while you’re here.

My guidelines center around one basic idea: life is temporary. If people realized this, perhaps they would make a better effort to bring happiness to theirs and others’ lives. Only when people begin to know how little changes can make huge differences will the world be a better place.
