Quote!

So as I read a friend's blog, I found this quote that I absolutely love and feel I need to apply in my life right now:

"If you believe in peace, act peacefully;
if you believe in love, act lovingly;
if you believe every which way, that's perfectly valid
- but don't go trying to sell your beliefs to the system.
You end up contradicting what you profess to believe in and you set a bum example. If you want to change the world,
change yourself."

    This literally caught me red-handed... I feel chastised. It's so true. You can't control anyone else - only yourself. And you're so much happier when you stop trying to change others! It's just hard to do sometimes... thanks for sharing :)
