5 LAWS OF LIFE YOU CAN DEPEND ON

1. This too shall pass.

Nothing stays the same. The only constant
in life is change. With every decision we make, we initiate
change. Even when we decide not to decide, life still goes on,
and changes still occur. When we are in a state of discomfort,
sadness, grief, or pain, we know that because life goes on,
change will bring us some kind of relief. And because even
comfort, happiness, and all good things also pass, we know
that we need to appreciate and cherish each precious, fleeting
moment.

2. Time heals.

The timepiece of life never stops. Neither does it
pause for those who celebrate, speed up for those who are
impatient, nor slow down for those who fear tomorrow. Time
ticks a regular rhythm that steadily brings new moments, new
days, and new seasons. As time pushes forward, we take new
steps, face new challenges, and create new opportunities.
And as life goes on, we are forced to move past our episodes
of disappointment, sorrow, or despair. More than anything
else, time heals not just broken bones but broken hearts as
well.

3. Ask and you shall receive.

People won't know what you want
unless you ask for it. Dreams and goals are just wishes until
you act on them, and acting on them often requires that you
ask for answers, for assistance, or for something tangible.
It takes a lot of courage to ask for help, but when you come
forward, only then will the world know what to give you. Just
ask and know that miracles can happen.

4. You can have anything, but not everything.

Life offers us infinite possibilities. With hard work, determination, and
perseverance, we can achieve anything. If we are willing to
pay the price and go the extra mile, we can have whatever
our hearts desire. But no matter how hard we try, we can't
have everything. Life is a balancing act of wins, losses, and
trade-offs...we gain some and we lose some.

5. What goes around comes around.

It's the universal law of nature: do to others what you want others to do to you,
because whatever you sow, you reap; whatever you give,
you get back ten-fold. It doesn't hurt to smile, or be kind,
or extend a helping hand. You never know when or how,
but every act of goodness always returns to the GIVER.
Give one today and receive ten tomorrow.
