"The only rules that really matter are these: What a man can do, and what a man can't do"
-Capt. Jack Sparrow-
I know this may very well get me into trouble, but it seems to me that things are the way they are.
Success happens because of structure; structure exists because of desire; desire is maintained and governed because of rules....are rules truly meant to be broken?
I don't know...but I do know this...
Silence has prompted action. Action into the things that I thought I wanted. More jobs, more class, more commitment, more dating, more money, and ultimately even less time. In the silence I have wrought rules for myself, to govern the things that I desire. Life, smiles, experience, travel, friends, fun, love....
The rules are as follows:
1 - Live like it was your last breath
2 - Never offer what you would never want in return
3 - Invest more than what you would ever think the return will ever be
4 - If you want to be there.....go.
5 - If you want a true friend, become so.
6 - Fun is the perception and view of a current situation, and how you make it out to be.
7 - Love is a state of heart, needing thorough refreshment of all things previous...
Of all rules set to govern the thoughts I maintain, and the actions I pursue, the only ones I have in mind all the time...
.....are rules one and two......
This probably means nothing to anyone, and that's okay. My mind usually ends up meaning nothing to everyone anyway and that's okay too because I am who I am, and no one needs like it except those who choose to. But I thought I would write, because after all that has become of my time, these are the results of my heart....because of that time.
Smiles be with you all...
...God Bless

In some ways, out of your list, all one really needs are rules 1 & 2. To me it seems like all the other rules can be linked to one of those two in some fashion, and so if you keep those two rules at the forefront, then the others should (in some way) fall into place on their own.
I don't think your writings mean nothing, if anything they encourage the minds of others to think, I know they've made me think about things, about life and on occasion have even helped spark my own ideas. ;-)
Although rules have been set, some are meant to be broken for our learning. Choose wisely which of those are. Others just get us into trouble and down a wrong path...
