Often I forget that there are people in this world that truly cannot see what it means to be anyone but themselves. They forget that each individual has their own priorities and motivations, their own schedules and obligations, their own challenges and joys.
As you go through life and interact with these people please remember the following:
1) Don't keep score. This isn't a game and there are no prizes at the finish line.
2) Give in a manner that makes you feel good. Eliminate any thoughts of "they didn't do this so I won't do that."
3) Be honest - sometimes saying something is not a catalyst for change, but it can clear the air.
4) When all else fails, focus on what is important to you and remind yourself of your blessings.
This is really great advice. Thanks for sharing, Michelle!
