Don Miguel Ruiz's The Four Agreements:
BE IMPECCABLE WITH YOUR WORD
Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourselfor to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
DON'T TAKE ANYTHING PERSONALLY
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.
DON'T MAKE ASSUMPTIONS
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
ALWAYS DO YOUR BEST
Your best is going to change from moment to moment, it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.


I was born in year of the snake.
"Snake: Snakes are beautiful people who exhibit a large amount of raw sexual appeal. They are sleek and seductive, and if they want you they will cast an emotional spell on you that won't let you stop thinking about them. However, Snakes are quite prejudiced when choosing a partner and don't just choose based on physical qualities -- they need a meeting of the minds as well.
The Snake needs a partner who can appreciate their quirky sense of humor and their oddball method of handling difficult situations. Generally, although quite beautiful and tempting to approach, the Snake does all the pursuing, picking, choosing and selecting. In the end, they will slither off with just the right mate for themselves."

Get outdoors. Go for a walk, blading, run, or grab a tea / coffee and talk.
