Start A New Religion

Enjoy Life Tip No 11

START A NEW RELIGION!

If you're fed up with what is currently on offer (religion seems to
cause a lot of death and mayhem if you ask me) then I think it is
time to start your own!

All you need to do is come up with a few 'rules' and start living
by them.

Here are a few of the 'rules' for my new religion, which is so new,
it doesn't even have a name yet (suggestions please)

FORGIVENESS

You need to forgive the past, forgive others and above all, forgive
yourself.

BIGOTRY

All humans are 99.99% identical. Don't let that 0.01% difference
bias your opinion of another, especially when it comes to color,
creed, religion or race.

EDUCATION

If your child's education does not EXPAND the mind then it is not
education at all, it is something entirely different.

FAMILY

Being 'family' does not legitimize intolerable or unacceptable
behaviour.

REGRET

Regret is a wasted emotion unless it is used as the propulsion to
move forward.

NOW

The past is set in stone, the future hasn't happened yet. There is
only NOW. But too often we spend time regretting the past, worrying
about the future and forgetting to live in the NOW.

So, to sum up, forgive, don't be a bigot, educate, do not accept
unacceptable behaviour, have no wasteful regrets and live in the
NOW.

So NOW, what shall we call it?

Ideas for names and new rules please....
