MIRROR, MIRROR.............

The good you find in others is in you too. The faults you find in others, are your faults as well. After all, to recognize something you must know it. The possibilities you see in others are possible for you as well. The beauty you see around you, is your beauty. The world around you is a mirror showing you the person you are.
To change your world, you must change yourself. To blame and complain will only make matters worse. Whatever you care about, is your responsibility. What you see in others shows you yourself. See the best in others, and you will be your best. Give to others, and you give to yourself. Appreciate beauty, and you will be beautiful. Admire creativity, and you will be creative.
Love and you will be loved. Seek to understand, and you will be understood. Listen and your voice will be heard. Teach, and you will learn. Show your best face to the mirror, And you'll be happy with the face looking back at you.

Now aren't those some words?!?! A friend of mine sent this round robin email the other day, and it landed in my inbox at a pretty poignant time in my life, and I must say, no truer words spoken.

Sometimes, we complain so much about what's wrong with the world, looking to others to make the change, looking at other people's faults, etc. Really we all need to start looking within. It won't be easy, I won't pretend, but isn't the end result worth the effort?!

In short, "be the change you want to see in the world" (Mahatma Ghandi)
