Ode To Happiness

Only one life to live;guard it jealously. Deadly,painful and discouraging are thoughts of the past. Evaluating and remunerating on past misdeeds will break you down. Tell sweet good stories of past experiences. Only recount past achievements to move you forward. Happy are those that plan within their limits. Abstain from excesses;as this could be overbearing on your income. Plan your resources very well to include all essential things. Place a seal on a percentage of your income that will be permanently on resrve. Intoxicating is excessive spending;avoid it. Never venture into projects that are above your means. Emulating friends,colleagues and acquaintances,will surely ruin you. Shy away from gambling,betting and high risk investments,that will run you bankcrupt. Save for the rainy day.
