What I know...

Sometimes I complicate life. I try to re-invent the wheel (as Georgia would tell me). I'm a "wheel re-inventer". Sometimes my brain won't turn off thinking about how to tweek this and how to tweek that. I forget the things I already know.

I had an epiphany at church today.

I need to return to the things I've learned...nothing new or profound and really not too original.

Here are a few things that I've learned:

God lives and loves me.

God loves everyone just as much as He loves me.

I can't change other people...only myself

Share everything

Play fair

Say you're sorry when you hurt someone

Clean up your own mess

Don't take things that aren't yours

Happiness comes from serving someone besides yourself

Be kind

Remember people's names

Practice what you preach

Forgive people quickly

Put things back where you found them

Do more listening, less talking

I am a Child of God

***

It's knowing and living the most simple things that brings the most happiness and peace.
