Helena,

I appreciate your latest post. And it read like a open, honest stream of consciousness. It was very heartfelt and I think you captured what a lot of posters think and feel.

But I approach life in a pretty simple way.

1) ALWAYS do the right thing.
2) When tempted to do the wrong thing, see rule #1.

I feel that today too many people do what they want to do. Or they do things because they think others want them to do it. Or they do it in order to manipulate someone else. This board is FULL of people struggling with these tendencies.

I adhere to the above for one simple reason....because doing the right thing is the right thing to do.

This is what I aspire to. I make mistakes. I stumble. I fall. I sin. I am not perfect, but that philosophy is what I strive for every day and every minute.

Because when you do the right thing because it is the right thing to do, and for no other reason, everything else falls into place. (Please note, this doesn't guarantee a problem free life!)
