Layman's language 10 commandments ?

They are like the Ten Commandments to follow in life all the time.

1]  Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in  trouble,
     but it is a "steering wheel"  that directs the right path throughout.

2]  So a Car's WINDSHIELD is so large & the Rear view Mirror is so small?
     Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look
Ahead and Move on. Concentrate and     focus ahead always.

3]  Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes few seconds to burn, but it
takes years to write.

4]  All things in life are temporary.  If going well, enjoy it, they
will not last forever.
     If going wrong, don't worry, they can't last long either.

5]  Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamond! If you get a Diamond,
     don't forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need
a Base of Gold!

6]  Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from
above and says,
     "Relax, sweetheart, it's just a bend, not the end!"

7]  When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities;
     when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

8]  A blind person asked St. Anthony: "Can there be anything worse
than losing eye sight?"
     He replied: "Yes, losing your vision!"

9]  When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and
sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has
prayed for you.

10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow's TROUBLES, it takes away
today's PEACE.
