Why
self-reflection is needed every now and then: Sometimes we see the speck
of dust on someone else's face without seeing our own. We demand
respect from others when we don't know how to give it. We ask people to
be gentle but we cannot control our own temper. We implore others to be
humble but we do not go down on our own high horses.
Love begets love. Respect begets respect. These transcend the boundaries of age and manners.
Self reflection means doing it first to others before expecting others to do it unto us.
The high road to this is doing it first, without expecting others to do the same, and forgiving others when they ever forget.
Today, I'm choosing the high road.
