Golden Rules

Away from the hustle and bustle of daily routines, sometimes when we take a break and sit back and try and realize what is happening in our life... it may all seem nothing less than a movie, isn't it?? all moments of happiness, despair, elation, frustration-everything flashes and fades in our mind's eye in just a matter of seconds.

It is during one of my such moments I realized - life is ACTUALLY what we make out of it. I am jotting down a few insights below so that I can easily remind myself to not repeat the mistakes.

1. There is no point in arguments. Just keep quiet. - Anyone is who is willing to understand and act accordingly will do so on your being silent. Everything else is just a waste of energy.
2. Expectations does actually reduce joy.
3. Do not believe everything that everyone says. - They may not want to cheat you, but maybe your interpretation will be different than theirs.
4. Don't depend on anyone else for your happiness. That's foolishness.- No one can understand you better that yourself. And so, no one can keep you happier than yourself.
5. Say Thank you and Sorry and mean it - At least your conscience will be happy.

Life is that simple.
