The secret of self-acceptance is....

respecting everyone; for as we are so do we imagine others to be: and as we view them, so do we ourselves become even more.

I think I do this. I hope I do this. The times I feel that I fell short of doing this have made me feel bad. Even when opinions differ greatly and personalities clash, others are always deserving of our respect.

This reminds me of one of my favorite quotes; one I strive to live by. Be extra nice to people, you never know what they're going through.
