Climbing the Musical Scale

DO- Do not worry over things that may never happen, and even if
they happen, worry will not help. Do count your blessings before
you count cares.

RE- Radiate good will and a spirit of benevolence. Like laughter,
it is infectious and makes yourself, as well as others, feel
better.

ME- Mete kindness, understanding, tolerance, and forgiveness
generously. You reap as you mete.

FA- Far-reaching things are the therapeutic benefits of spiritual
thinking. You become as you habitually think. Resentment, hatred,
spite, envy, and vengeance pack radioactive fall-out that gnaws
at your vitals. They are self-consuming.

SO- Sow the seeds of love, friendship, empathy, and helpfulness.
These hardy seeds take root in the crustiest ground.

LA- Laugh at yourself now and then. He who can laugh at himself
is less apt to be at war with himself. Laugh at yourself, even if
you don't feel like laughing.

TI- Teach yourself awareness and appreciation of all the wonders
of nature. Thank God daily for the precious gift of life. Genuine
gratitude and discontent are never found together.

DO- Do not expect someone else to open the door to happiness for
you. You must do it yourself. You alone have the key. Turn it.
