Believe in Love at First Sight, I Did

JUST A LITTLE REMINDER WE COULD ALL USE ~

A few ways to lead a Happy & Successful Life ~ Including but not limited to ~

ONE.  Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.


TWO.  Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.

Karen & Frank



THREE.   Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.




FOUR.  When you say, 'I love you,' mean it.
On the beach


FIVE.  When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.



SIX.  Be engaged at least six months before you get married.



SEVEN.  Believe in love at first sight.

Frank and love at first sight

EIGHT.  Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.



NINE.  Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.



TEN..  In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.



ELEVEN.
  Don't judge people by their relatives.



TWELVE.  Talk slowly but think quickly.




THIRTEEN!  When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?'




FOURTEEN.  Remember that great love and great achievements involve great risk.




FIFTEEN.  Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze.



SIXTEEN.  When you lose, don't lose the lesson.




SEVENTEEN.  Remember the three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions.



EIGHTEEN.  Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.




NINETEEN.  When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.




TWENTY.  Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice




TWENTY- ONE.  Spend some time alone.

Thank you for sharing!  I have to agree with all except I have to add to one of them for personal reasons.....#1, I do believe in giving more than expected and cheerfully.....my "honey" is terrific and we enjoy each other's company and work well together but his weakness is taking all the "cheerful giving" for granted...so to keep things moving smoothly sometimes we have to revisit all that "cheerful giving"....  :)
