Thank you for your insights, Terveen. I taught a class on personal change at the university. I began the class the same way each semester. We sat in a large circle, I walked to the center of the circle and placed five twenty dollar bills under my water bottle. When I sat down, I said, “The person who can change my water bottle into a rose can have the $100. Of course, the professor won. I then said, “That’s how successful you’ll be in trying to change another. The only person we can change is ourself.” The change class brought about many profound changes in my students. Have a great day. Shine on. Ray
Oh yes! 🙂
