Before!!!

I read this beautiful message recently. While reading through this all I could think was how relevant it is in today's world.

We live in a world of instant gratification, and because of this we have stopped being patient enough with ourselves and the people around us.

So without further ado: read, understand and act.

I always feel happy, You know why?
Because, I don't expect anything from anyone,
Expectations always hurt… Life is short…
So love your life, be happy and keep smiling…
Just live for yourself

Before you speak… Listen…
Before you Write… Think!!!
Before you Spend… Earn$$$
Before you Pray… Forgive…
Before you Hurt… Feel…
Before you Hate… Love…
Before you Quit… TRY…
Before you Die… LIVE

Edit: I have seen the phrase above attributed to Shakespeare, but I can say with some confidence that this is not the case. The author is unknown, but a quote similar to the 2nd phrase is written by Willaim Arthur Ward with the title Before You.

Believe me when I say, that I did not know this before I titled my post Before. Eerie...
