Love your neighbor as yourself

Isn’t it funny?

When the other fellow takes a long time to do it, he is slow,

When I take a long time to do something, I am thorough.

When the other fellow doesn’t do it, he is lazy,

When I don’t do it, I am busy.

When the other fellow does it without being told, he is overstepping his boundaries,

When I go ahead and do it without being told, that’s initiative.

When the other fellow states his opinion strongly, he is bull-headed,

When I state my opinion strongly, I am firm.

When the other fellow overlooks a few rules of etiquette, he is rude,

When I speak without thinking of others’ feelings, I am calling a spade a spade.

Lessons

Respect others - not just our own nearest and dearest.

If we must judge people, judge them by the same standards.
