Looking back on your deeds and your day, how did you handle the pressures, choices and people.
Were you kind, principled, fair?
It's not whether you win or lose each battle. Rise above your daily battlefields and see the terrain from a new height.
Step outside your immediate situation and realize that most of the time, things work out eventually. Was it worth it to snap at your wife this morning or do you wish you left her with a kiss? Should you have fumed at your husband today, or told him it's ok, everyone makes mistakes. Did you tell your son or your daughter you love them? No? What message did you give them?
Tonight and tomorrow when you look back at your choices, your actions, your words, will you see a kind person or an angry one?
People may misjudge you, but eventually truth always comes out. How will you handle your friends when they've made a mistake? Will they remember you're angry and be afraid to approach you? Will they realize you were always kind to them and miss your friendship?
Every moment of your life defines and reveals who you are. If you don't like you, who will?
Can you love that man or woman in the mirror?
