Words I'm living by...

Recently, I began certifying in Reiki and have been pleased with its wisdom. Take, for example, its advice on living:

1) Just for today, do not anger.
2) Just for today, do not worry.
3) Honor your parents, teachers, and elders.
4) Make your living honestly.
5) Be grateful for everything.

How helpful it is to realize that we can live in the moment, that just for today, I can choose something other than anger and worry. I can think about tomorrow when tomorrow comes, but today I will choose patience and faith and gratitude.
