The first line was such a turnoff that I almost bypassed it. However, since the source was a dear friend of mine, I decided to read on. THEN I decided to copy/paste to share with those surfing the wastelands.
I met this guy while I was away on a business trip, and he has a motto he lives by every day. He said listen carefully and live by these 4 rules: Drink, Steal, Swear, & Lie. I was shaking my head 'no', but he then told me to listen while he explained his four rules. So here they are:
1. "Drink" from the "everlasting cup" every day.
2. "Steal" a moment to help someone that is in worse shape than you are.
3. "Swear" that you will be a better person today than yesterday.
4. And last, but not least, when you "lie" down at night
Thank God you live in America and have freedom to worship Him.
