My Best

 If I am what I ought to be, I find that a lot of what concerns me out there is cured.  I tend to whine about people, places, and events and fail to see that a lot of the solution begins with me.  When I accept outside stuff, or show compassion, I seem to feel better and do better.  When at this point I often come up with the reminder to see what I can add to life around me rather than complain about how others should change.  As someone said, "We all talk of reforming others without ever reforming ourselves."
