Food for thought

" We judge ourselves on our intentions, but we judge others by their actions."  ~Jesse Merz
This really got me thinking about myself and if I really do that. I realized that I did. It's hard sometimes because I can justify what I do or say by how I thought it sounded just like the quote. But what if I gave others that same treatment that I gave myself? I probably wouldn't be so upset all the time about how people act. Maybe if I took a few minutes to evaluate the situation and say to myself..I wonder what they meant by that instead of wow that sounded so rude I know they were trying to hurt me by that. Then I think life would be a lot easier. 
In conclusion I am going to try to better myself and think more. I encourage any one else to do this as well, I think it could really make the holiday season be a lot happier.
