This verse is printed without permission (I have had it for so many
years that I do not even remember the source)
I PROMISE MYSELF
To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person I meet.
To make all my friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.
To think only the best, to work only for the best, and to expect
only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am
about my own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater
achievements of the future
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living
creature I meet a smile
To give so much time to the improvement of myself that I have no
time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear;
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world,
not in loud words but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side as long as
I am true to the best that is in me.

Liz,
To accept promises that are true of feeling, love, and caring and
as not reflections of the past...or question them...but accept them
as they are...
To forgive and accept, and believe and show what is in 765.0...
Love
Jerry

| 765.2 | What of others? | MARMAT::JERRY | Only the lonely know the heartache...Roy Orbison | Wed May 24 1989 22:39 | 7 |
What of the promises we make to others?
Do we just think of ourselves and deny those that love and care?
