Simple Rules To Try To Navigate Life

I think we all find life a bit hard to navigate. Maybe if we went back to a simpler time it would be easier.  To not get caught up in a whirlwind of crazy we probably should pay attention to some simple logical rules or guidelines if you will that might just help. Do the best you can in whatever you do(this does not mean say it is the best you can do if your heart knows different). Do not cause harm to others(it is basically causing yourself harm so just don't do it). Keep yourself and your environment clean(this might seem silly but no living thing wants to live in filth). You might not think the last thing matters if you are already living a life surrounded by dirt and chaos but it does, you have just pushed the fact that it bothers you behind a door in your mind and trying to not care is keeping you from other things in life. Balance work and play whenever possible(too much of either will have you fighting yourself in your own mind). It would be better to not muddy your mind with alcohol or drugs, they are a powerful seducer but do not contribute to your life and well being(they really don't even when they try to convince you otherwise).  If you cannot be kind to a fellow human being avoid interaction with said human(the unkindness you show them harms you more than you know). Accept your weaknesses and move on(this is part of doing the best you can always). If you have made yourself responsible for another human being(child, partner, etc.) or a pet of some sort, do not shirk that responsibility. If you did not want it you should not have accepted it. Remember that your point of view in life is just that, your point of view. Others have their own point of view and theirs might just be as right as yours. Take care of your physical health and your mental health(things will and do go wrong with these fragile human bodies).
