My favourite quote is 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.
Life really is a roller-coaster with it's ups and downs and varying speeds. Yet no matter how hard you try to stay on an even keel, something always comes along to kick you in the teeth and remind you just how fragile life is. We are all trying to live the best we know how and to get along together. So take time to appreciate those around you and tell them how much you love them occasionally. A smile and a kind word speaks volumes.

I don't live with my little sister anymore because she now lives with my dad from about a year ago. I really mean a lot to her because my dad says everytime she hears my voice she crys because she misses me so much. It was her birthday on the 29th and i forgot to call her. I feel really guilty and i really want to make up to her. I havent spoken to her yet. What can i do about it? what can i buy her? shes 10 by the way...but she is very mature.
thankz in advance (link)

Honesty is always the best policy. Explain the truth to her and also say that you will make it up to her. Buy her something that she can keep and then write a little note with it saying that it comes from your heart to hers and every time she wears/uses it she will know how much you love her. Take time out to ring her at least once a week and send her emails/letters with funny stories or jokes. Sometimes the smallest gesture has the biggest impact.
Tell your sister that you will always be there for her and perhaps come up with a secret word that she can use if she needs help.
She is very precious and will make a considerable difference to your life. Cherish her the very best you can. All the best.
