4. Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

3. Don’t Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

2. Don’t Take Anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.

1. Be Impeccable with your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the Word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your Word in the direction of truth and love.

I had to find a quote today about heroes after hearing the news that one of the heroes of World War II, Joachim Rønneberg, died today.  He was 99.  My dad and my two uncles were heroes of that War too, each in their own way.  My Uncle Fred, like Rønneberg, parachuted into enemy territory.  My Uncle Bill was in a tank division in Europe and my dad taught infantry in the Pacific theater.  The story of Joachim Rønneberg is very inspiring.  About nine years ago, when he was 90, he began to speak about it more openly.  The Telegraph reported here:  A New Mission for Joachim Rønneberg, Hero of Telemark.  There is a movie about his life and the trailer is here on NPR, posted today about his death: Joachim Rønneberg , Who Sabotaged Nazis’ Nuclear Hopes, Dies At 99.

Today my husband and I celebrate 19 years together. I wanted a quote that described the love I have felt all these years for and from this exceptional man, my best friend.  The word that came to mind was “devotion” which is how I found this quote.
