Prescriptions for Living

Theme for meeting last Sunday was 'Prescriptions for living'. I was the MC for the day, I asked members to come up with their own prescriptions and write down those things in a sheet of paper. I asked them to make it very prescription-like, the way doctors write their prescriptions, and even prefix their names with the title Dr, and suffix with degrees as they please.

And... I was amazed by the response I got! All of them got creative, donned doctor's hat, and came up with such good prescriptions for living! I am sharing some of them here.
