Live and let live, fairly take and fairly give.
Soft of eye and light of touch, speak little and listen much.
Heed you flower, bush and tree, by the Lady, blessed be.
Where the rippling waters go, cast a stone, the truth to know.
When you have and hold a need, harken not to other's greed.
With a fool no seasons spend, or be counted as his friend.
Merry meet and merry part, bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
True in love you must ever be, lest their love be false to thee.
An it harm none, do what you will.
These are a portion of the words from a longer Poem called the Wiccan Rede.

Bide within the Law you must, in perfect Love and perfect Trust.
Live you must and let to live, fairly take and fairly give.
For tread the Circle thrice about to keep unwelcome spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time, let the spell be said in rhyme.
Light of eye and soft of touch, speak you little, listen much.
Honor the Old Ones in deed and name,
let love and light be our guides again.
Deosil go by the waxing moon, chanting out the joyful tune.
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane,
and the werewolf howls by the dread wolfsbane.
When the Lady's moon is new, kiss the hand to Her times two.
When the moon rides at Her peak then your heart's desire seek.
Heed the North winds mighty gale, lock the door and trim the sail.
When the Wind blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast.
When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss you on the mouth.
When the wind whispers from the West, all hearts will find peace and rest.
Nine woods in the Cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow.
Birch in the fire goes to represent what the Lady knows.
Oak in the forest towers with might, in the fire it brings the God's
insight. Rowan is a tree of power causing life and magick to flower.
Willows at the waterside stand ready to help us to the Summerland.
Hawthorn is burned to purify and to draw faerie to your eye.
Hazel-the tree of wisdom and learning adds its strength to the bright fire burning.
White are the flowers of Apple tree that brings us fruits of fertility.
Grapes grow upon the vine giving us both joy and wine.
Fir does mark the evergreen to represent immortality seen.
Elder is the Lady's tree burn it not or cursed you'll be.
Four times the Major Sabbats mark in the light and in the dark.
As the old year starts to wane the new begins, it's now Samhain.
When the time for Imbolc shows watch for flowers through the snows.
When the wheel begins to turn soon the Beltane fires will burn.
As the wheel turns to Lamas night power is brought to magick rite.
Four times the Minor Sabbats fall use the Sun to mark them all.
When the wheel has turned to Yule light the log the Horned One rules.
In the spring, when night equals day time for Ostara to come our way.
When the Sun has reached it's height time for Oak and Holly to fight.
Harvesting comes to one and all when the Autumn Equinox does fall.
Heed the flower, bush, and tree by the Lady blessed you'll be.
Where the rippling waters go cast a stone, the truth you'll know.
When you have and hold a need, harken not to others greed.
With a fool no season spend or be counted as his friend.
Merry Meet and Merry Part bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Three-fold Laws you should three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow wear the star upon your brow.
Be true in love this you must do unless your love is false to you.
These Eight words the Rede fulfill:
"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"

I live like I am dying, with the hope of tomorrow and far down the road. I live my life with a focus on enjoying the hear and now and being present in the hear and now, but I plan for tomorrow, and I have hopes of tomorrow. When I am upset with a person I tell them, I don't keep it all inside, that can kill a person. When I love someone I tell them. When I want to have a hot coco I drink it. I save for my retirement because that gives me piece of mind for today and tomorrow.

Hi, my name is Eunice Saunders and this is a deep question...one I am not sure many would understand....so let me try to figure it out.... You want to know how I live my life...? Like what do I believe? Or just day to day? Well lets see...My daddy was a farmer...and he taught me lots of things....one was how to plow a field....so day to day I pull the plow just like the mule... I try real hard to do no harm to others....and I try to treat everyone like I would want to be treated....I don't always make it to the end of the row (day) without messing up....someday's I mess up before my bed is made in the morning.....but I try...and that's my own word! Thanks, Eunice

Lu 4:4
But Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.' "
Why would I want to put it in my own words. It isn't about me.

I live by 2 of them actually. They are:
Accept me for who I am. If you cant accept that, then dont accept me at all.
and,
"A friends a friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them. And a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. Though its hard to let you go, to the Fathers hand we know. That a lifetimes not too long to live as friends." That was sung at my baby sisters funeral and something I live by to this day.

I can't live this life the way God wants me to. I have to allow the Holy Spirit that dwells in me to do the work for me.

I try to see no response other than a loving response as a logical response to any situation that I am confronted with. No Exceptions.
Love and blessings Don

Life is a gift. Enjoy it. Have reverence for that and those which are around you. Give freely and it shall be returned freely. Life is what I make of it.
