Next Sunday, December 7, is the 84th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. Every year on this date, the VFW Post 3019 Honor Guard pays tribute to Seaman Ben Shively, a Three Rivers resident who was among those sailors who lost their lives onboard the USS Arizona on this day that will live on in infamy. The ceremony takes place at Ben Shively’s grave marker at Riverside Cemetery at 1 PM. The public is invited to attend.

Here are eight rules to help us all enjoy a better life:

— Make peace with your past. Focus on the present and create a better future.
— Avoid negativity. Surround yourself with positive people.
— Give it time. Time heals almost anything.
— Don’t compare your life to others. Don’t judge people. Everyone is on a different journey.
— Stop thinking too much. It’s alright to not know the answers.
— Only you are in charge of your happiness. Be strong and move on. It’s time to be happy again.
— Be kind. You have the power to make people feel good.
— Smile. It always works out in the end. Life is short, enjoy it while you can.

“The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time.” ~ Thomas Jefferson
