This
is what The Dalai Lama has to say on the millennium, all it takes is a
few seconds to read and think.
Instructions For
Life: Take into account that great love
and great achievements involve great risk. When you lose, don't lose the
lesson. Follow the three Rs: Respect for self Respect for others and Responsibility
for all your actions. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes
a wonderful stroke of luck. Learn the rules so you know how to break them
properly. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship. When you
realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it. Spend
some time alone every day. Open your arms to change, but don't let go
of your values. Remember that silence is Sometimes the best answer. Live
a good, honourable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll
be able to enjoy it a second time. A loving atmosphere in your home is
the foundation for your life. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only
with the current situation. Don't bring up the past. Share your knowledge.
It's a way to achieve immortality. Be gentle with the earth. Once a year,
go someplace you've never been before. Remember that the best relationship
is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it. Approach
love and cooking with reckless abandon.
