I do my best to treat others as I would want to be treated. Basically the 10 commandments can be boiled down to that one concept, which is "The Golden Rule". Other things that I try to keep in mind while trying to play this game called life is:
1.you can't change other people, even if it is better for them to change.
2. don't try to be perfect and don't expect perfection from other people. Accept your and others little oddities.
3. If you are not allergic to them, get a cat or dog. They help to keep things in perspective.
4. forgive your self and others, you really do miss out on a lot of good things by holding a grudge.
5. Be honest with your self and with others. NOT CRUEL, but honest. You can be honest in a nice way.
6. volunteer your time or talents from time to time.
7. Live by the Golden Rule baby
8. Focus on the good things that people do, for you or for others, and thank them for it. Even if it is just holding the door open for you at the mall, look them in the eye and say thank you :-)
9. If your grandparents are still alive spend as much time with them as possible!!!!
10. Always be thinking of ways to bring a smile to someone. Send a friend a card when he/she is going through a hard time, make dinner for your parents, shovel an elderly neighbor's drive way, etc.
11. vote Democrat. :-)

In our home we have these :
1) Lend a helping hand. If you see someone needing help, get over there and help, even if you do not know exactly what to do, OFFER !
2) The word "try" is not allowed in this house. Do not "try", DO SO ! Why TRY to be a good person... BE ONE !!
3) The word "can't" is not allowed in this house. Instead of saying you "can't" do something, think of how you CAN make it work for you.
4) No one will tell anyone to "shut up".
5) No loud music. You will need to listen for me sneaking up behind you to smack you upside the head!
6) Do your chores with out complaint or back talk.
7) Do NOT tell a lie. I (the mom) have ways of finding out everything so don't make it harder on yourself. You will never be in trouble for telling us the truth.
8) Learn to say : Thank you, Please, Excuse me, I'm sorry, I love you. They all appropriate times.
9) No arguing ! We may not always agree but that is no reason to say mean or hurtful things. We can ALWAYS agree that we disagree.
10) Kindness goes a long way! Always be kinder than necessary. It will return to you even more powerful!
