Recipe for a Love-filled (Happy) Life

This one goes out to MJ. (Life tends to offer up answers on its own when we most them my friend)

My girl is heading to a wedding shower today. The host sent index cards to everyone who is attending and asked each person to create a "Recipe for a happy life". This is what my girl wrote. All I can say is that I am a VERY lucky man.

Recipe for a Love Filled Life

Note: You can't create a love filled life without a sense of humor!

INGREDIENTS

• Humor
• Communication
• Wisdom
• Compassion
• Insight
• Empathy
• Patience
• Humility

Mix ingredients together well. Some days you will need more of one ingredient than others. If you run out of patience, substitute humor or compassion in ample quantities. Compassion & Empathy are similar ingredients and thus can be substituted as you see fit. If you are all out of insight, try humility. And always blend everything together with communication.
