This is something that I received a week ago from Shirley Southard:

 

 TWENTY TRUTHS TO LIVE BY: 
 
1. Faith is the ability to not panic. 
 
2. If you worry, you didn't pray. If you pray, don't worry. 
 
3. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every  day. 
 
4. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
 
5. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to
be still so God can untangle the knot. 
 
6. Do the math. Count your blessings. 
 
7. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts. 
 
8. Dear God: I have a problem. It's me. 
 
9. Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted. 
 
10. Laugh every day. It's like inner jogging. 
 
11. The most important things in your home are the people. 
 
12. Growing old is inevitable. Growing up is optional. 
 
13. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open. 
 
14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry. 
 
15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead. 
 
16. We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves
too fast, so enjoy your precious moments. 

17. Nothing is real to you until you experience it;
otherwise it's just hearsay. 
 
18. It's all right to sit on your pity pot every now
and again. Just flush when you are done. 

 

19. Surviving and living your life successfully
requires courage. The goals and dreams you're seeking require
courage and risk taking. Learn from the turtle -- it only makes
progress when it sticks out its neck. 
 
20. Be more concerned with your character than your  reputation,
because your character is what you really are, while  your  
reputation is merely what others think you are.
