agtien lewenslesse

woorde inspireer my

dit knoop al die frustrasies los

en laat my weer met nuwe

oë na my wêreld kyk

 

Take into account that great love and great achievements involve risk

When you lose, don’t lose the lesson

Follow the three R’s: respect for self; respect for others; responsibility for all your actions

Remember that nót getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck

Learn the rules, so that you know how to break them properly

 

Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship

When you realise you’ve made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it

Spend some time alone every day

Open your arms to change, but don’t let go of your values

Remember that silence is often the best answer

Live a good honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll be able to enjoy it a second time

A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life

In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current issue. Don’t bring up the past

Share your knowledge. It’s a way to achieve immortality

Be gentle with the earth

Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before

Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other

Judge your success by what you had to give up to get it
