Feng Who?

Mental Feng Shui, as I understand it, is a Chinese philosophy of life.
.
Feng Shui (pronounced "fung shway") examines how the placement of things and objects within it affect the energy flow in your living environment, and how these objects interact with and influence your personal energy flow. Your personal energy flow affects how you think and act, which in turn affects how well you perform and succeed in your personal and professional life. Feng Shui affects you every moment of the day — whether you're aware of it or not.
.
Do I understand this philosophy? The answer is a resounding....NO! So, why am I posting this? Simply because these concepts of Feng Shui are concepts, that if adhered to , would make us all a happier and more contented people....regardless of the origin.

A friend e-mailed this to me, and I felt it was worthy of posting.
.
ONE. Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
.
TWO. Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their conversational skills will be as important as any other.
.
THREE. Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.
.
FOUR. When you say, 'I love you,' mean it.
.
FIVE. When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.
.
SIX. Be engaged at least six months before you get married.
.
SEVEN. Believe in love at first sight.
.
EIGHT. Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.
.
NINE. Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.
.
TEN. In disagreements, fight fairly. No name calling.
.
ELEVEN. Don't judge people by their relatives.
.
TWELVE. Talk slowly but think quickly.
.
THIRTEEN. When someone asks you a question you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?'

.
FIFTEEN. Say 'bless you' when you hear someone sneeze.
.

EIGHTEEN. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
.
NINETEEN. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
.
TWENTY. Smile when picking up the phone. The caller will hear it in your voice.
.
Number TWELVE is the Feng Shui rule that hits a nerve with me....talk slowly but think quickly!
.
Number ELEVEN....my dad could have worked on this one. "NO! Absolutely not...you can't date (so and so)! I knew his grand daddy and he wouldn't look me in the eyes when he talked to me! You can't trust anybody that doesn't look you in the eyes!"

How about you? Which one makes an impression on you?
