This is installment #1 of Fort Thompson Principles to Live By
1. Laugh in the face of things that anger you.
2. Kiss your children everyday and tell them how much you love them.
3. Enjoy every breath for the next could be your last.
4. Do something nice for a total stranger everyday.
5. Give to a charity, it could save someones life and there is no better feeling than the gift of giving.
6. Mentor a child for they are our future.
7. Pay someone a compliment especially if they have angered you. Watch their reaction and then smile at them so they know you are sincere.
8. Always give credit where credit is due, but in the face of failure take full responsibility.
9. When everyone else is avoiding a problem, be the one who steps in to provide a solution.
10. Don't talk about what YOU would do, do it so others will talk about what you did.

20 Soldier's saluted this post:
Great list :) I especially like #2 and #8.
Great principals to live by, I live by most and will work on the others...isn't that what life's all about...working towards being better stewards for the Lord. By the way ~ I really love the new look! It's AWESOME!
Great principles to live by. Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
I love #6. I think The Salvation Army is going to ban me from their truck soon, we give so much stuff away. I just keep finding things we can live without! Love the new look, love the blog as always, and can't wait to take the poll!

I like the one about mentor a child, because I have always wanted to do the BigSister/BigBrother program :)
Those are great! I should write them down and hang them up somewhere.
I enjoyed reading that!
Such good words to live by. I think I'll copy these down.
A beautiful reminder for all of us!
These are great! Except that if I did #10, I wouldn't care if anybody talked about it or not. I'd just be happy to have done it.
Great List!!!
