Hi Carole thanks so much for this entry and all of your entries it helps me keep rejuvenated and ready to give to others. I thought you might like the movie The Great Mother. It's a documentary about the Dalai Lama's mother, and it's super good and well done, and is about motherhood in general as well. It was great to hear such an amazing spiritual and political leader so humbled when talking about the nature of the mother, he says that mother is the first teacher, of kindness, compassion, foregiveness, do's + don'ts and how to be with each other, and in this way mother is before religion. I thought it was nice to see him give mama her due, and thought you might want to blog about the movie.

Great Reminders, how often I forget, or allow my ego to take over

Love and hugs

These are great reminders – I’m definitely resonating with #8 right now. Knowing that you are already perfectly equipped in life is a very comforting reassurance

I like #9 as well! It so true all you have to do is take a moment and listen to that voice and you will always know what to do.

Also I like the #s 4 & 5. I hate that the lessons don’t end and I am grateful when I can move on to the next one and not have to repeat!!

Thanks Jen and David.

Have to agree with you David about rules 6. Its also a little tricky to live in the present moment all the time. Work in progress I say.

Peace, love and chocolate

Excellent! I had seen this years ago, and true to Rule 10, I totally forgot. Time to put it on my fridge.

Rule 6 is the most profound, IMHO.

Hiya

Wonderful article!
Life affirming and a good nudge in the direction of ‘man/woman know theyself’.
I think these are 11 guiding points for life that can be included in school education. Or education for any age group.
1, 3, 6, 8 really leaped out at me and are cause for reflection. 9 is the greatest of them all, in my opinion.

thanks
Jens
