I got this e-mailed to me this morning so I thought I'd pass on the message. <P>INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIFE IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM FROM THE DALAI LAMA:<P>1. Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.<BR>2. When you lose, don't lose the lesson.<BR>3. Follow the three Rs: Respect for self, Respect for others, Responsibility for all your actions. <BR>4. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.<BR>5. Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.<BR>6. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.<BR>7. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.<BR>8. Spend some time alone every day.<BR>9. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.<BR>10. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.<BR>11. Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time.<BR>12. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.<BR>13. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don't bring up the past.<BR>14. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.<BR>15. Be gentle with the earth.<BR>16. Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.<BR>17. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.<BR>18. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.<BR>19. Approach love and cooking with reckless abandon.<P>--------<P>I'm not really a guru of the Dalai Lama, but I thought he did make a few good points.<P>Hope everyone is smiling today!!!!<P>Eraser
