Today's Quote: "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." ~ Leo Tolstoy

I have been reminded more than once that we cannot change others, and that when we would like to do so, we need to focus on changing ourselves, or at least our reactions to what is beyond our control. It is not up to any of us to change the whole world, or even our own little world.

Sometimes the only things we can actually change are ourselves. We can focus our energy on changing ourselves, our own behavior, and our attitudes about the situations in which we find ourselves.

Sometime changes to ourselves are the only ones we need to make to change the world.

Ah, *stretch*, a life of ease elludes me. I love people, music, reading, writing, football, and nature. I love to debate and can usually see both sides of any topic.  View profile
