10 Commandments...

[thewingwoman]

Okay, so I got pretty insightful a while back (so I wrote the first 5 at home, and the last 5 on a bar napkin)… And I have analyzed my life and the way I live and have come up with a few commandments of my own to live by. They've helped me cope with the breakup I've been dealing with since December, and whenever I feel upset, I reread them. Figured I’d share, and I even elaborated on them to reduce confusion as to why I chose to make it a commandment.

 

 

1. Thou shalt further train thy mind, body, and spirit.

– I am the only one who can make me better.

2. Thou shalt not go looking for men.

– I am worth being found.

3. Thou shalt not make a priority out of an option until they prove worthy.

– I deserve to be more than just a back-up plan.

4. Thou shalt not settle.

– Everything I want and deserve is out there, I just have to be patient and I’ll eventually find it all.

5. Thou shalt not chase anyone that would not be willing to chase back.

– I shouldn’t waste time on people that do not deserve my attention.

6. Thou shalt not succumb to lust initially.

– I must give feelings time to develop before giving myself to someone fully.

7. Thou shalt enjoy the moment and not fear the future.

– Instead of worrying what the future holds, I need to enjoy the now.

8. Thou shalt not seek recognition from others, but find it within thy self.

– I am the only one that can judge me.

9. Thou shalt not expect lust to become love, or for love to include lust.

– I cannot make something into something it’s not meant to be.

10. Thou shalt seek self-pleasure instead of relying upon others.

– No man can ever give me the pleasure I can bestow upon myself. (Thanks Energizer. What, you didn’t think I could be 100% serious for the whole 10 did you?)
