[QUOTE="Agback, post: 1090911, member: 5328"] Hear! Hear! I say again: Hear! Hear! In a more general way, don't rehearse your grievances, grudges, and complaints. That will only make you unhappy, irritable, spiteful, and more unhappy. Make a habit of thinking of the good things about people, the good things that are going to happen, and your reasons [i]not[/i] to kill yourself. "Always remember that your enemies is not a villain in his own eyes. This may allow you to make him your friend. And if not, at least you can kill him quickly and without hate." [Robert Heinlein] Wonder 'why?' And if possible ask. Ask 'How does anybody know that?' Read every day. Watch only television you are really interested in. "Do not believe anything simply because you have heard it said. "Do not believe in traditions simply because they have been handed down for generations. "Do not believe anything simply because it is spoken and rumoured of by many. "Do not believe anything simply because it is written about in books. "Do not believe anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. "But if, after observation and analysis, you find that something agrees with evidence and is conducive to the good and benefit of all, accept it with all your heart and live up to it with all your effort."
