*Rules for Life*
Life may seem like a garden of flowers,
To live with peace and joy also there’s a way,
Follow these rules each and every day.
Rise early and greet the sun,
Health, wealth and wisdom have just begun.
Yoga and food that’s good for you,
Keeps the body and mind healthy too.
Honesty shines as truth always wins,
Cheating never leads to peace within.
Straightforwardness is a mirror so clear,
Reflecting a soul we hold dear.
Cleanliness is divine both inside and out,
Brings blessings without a doubt.
Respect for elders as their wisdom we seek,
Their blessings make us strong and not weak.
Simplicity, truth, and love for all,
Are keys to life's most beautiful call.
With kindness to animals, nature, and land,
Together we’ll make the world grand.
