Do as you would be done by

If you want honesty, give honesty

If you want respect, give respect

If you want kindness, be kind

If you want true friends, be a true friend.

If you want trust, be trustworthy

Wouldn't it be nice if that was all it took? Give, and you shall receive, measure upon measure, life piled on life.

Oh well, we can dream. roll eyes

Be true to yourself, because you are the only person you have to live with. And maybe, just maybe, the Beatles are right ...

Peds, do a few. Just so you can be done by a few. choir
Thanks, Manuman! Be the best you can, knowing that others would react in kind? Would be GREAT - but hard work! cheers
Minerva, Mrs Do-as-you-would-be-done-by and Mrs Be-done-by-as-you-did had a great effect on my childhood laugh The Water Babies was a pretty scary book, in retrospect, but then kid stories often are wow
Molly, stop corrupting Pedal!! He's one of the few men on this website looking for The One rather than The Choir and himself as The Conductor!
Sounds very well Ms Biff but if you were to live by them rules, wouldn't that make you a very dishonest person confused
Good point well made, Molly, and what the hell. Go for it! devil

"Do as you would be done by"?

Yeah fine if you live in a perfect world, but in reality this is a very naive point of view.
We all make mistakes and do unto others what we know we wouldnt like to be done unto ourselves... a bad word or thought, the "loose if you snooze" attitude as you cut in front of a car thats not going as fast as you want too.

I accept the value of the list you detailed but each is flawed because we ourselves are flawed.
so true Eleg... that's what I am applying in my life even in here with my "virtual" friends, as still you all are my friends..
Molly can't corrupt me, but I might rub off on her.cool
