I received this in an email from my dear friend Will. I guess this is a "found poem." Anyway I liked what it said so I thought I would share it with my friends here.


Email Wisdom

ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it
cheerfully.


TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you
get older, their conversational skills will be as
important as any other.


THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you
have or sleep all you want.


FOUR. When you say, "I love you," mean it.


FIVE. When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in
the eye.


SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get
married.


SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.


EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dream. People who
don't have dreams don't have much.


NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get
hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.



TEN.. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name
calling.


ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.


TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.


THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you
don't want to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you
want to know?"


FOURTEEN. Remember that great love and great
achievements involve great risk.


FIFTEEN. Say "bless you" when you hear someone
sneeze.


SIXTEEN. When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

SEVENTEEN. Remember the three R's: Respect for
self; Respect for others; and responsibility for
all your actions.


EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great
friendship.


NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake,
take immediate steps to correct it.


TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller
will hear it in your voice.


TWENTY-ONE. Spend some time alone.
