DONT SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF
Live beneath
your means.
Stay behind
the scenes.
Return what
You borrow.
Live each day like
no tomorrow.
Own yours,
Don't blame another.
One hand washed
The other.
Listen more,
Speak less.
You're always a
Work in progress.
Do your best
Be on time.
Some things have no
Reason or rhyme.
Handle your business,
No excuses.
Be kind to others
Don't be abusive.
Have a conversation,
Do not fight.
When you leave,
Travel light.
Be nice to people who
Are unkind.
These little things bring
Peace of mind.
Always cultivate,
Good manners.
Be on the look out
For the scammers.
Stay humble, know when
To be quiet.
Be a part of the cause,
Not the riot.
You know when
Enough is enough.
Don't sweat
The small stuff.
