Two: Remember that we are all in the same boat. May I, you or he or she is black or white.

Three: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark. Four: Stay fit. When you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.

Six: Build your future on high ground. Always aim high.

Seven: For safety's sake, travel in pairs. Have you ever felt the magnitude of a joy shared? It's worth more than double.

stop and re-group.

Ten: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.
