What is it exactly that matters?

Is it the way people act towards you, or the way you act towards people?

I know as much as the next person how nice it feels when someone says something nice about you.  But knowing that is surely why it’s so important to do it to other people.  Otherwise no one would ever experience that feeling.

By the same standards should we say the bad things to people?  Sometimes it’s just being rude, or to satisfy ourselves, but do we actually acknowledge how it makes other people feel?  Especially if they don’t mean to do the crime you’re blaming them for.

As nice as the feeling is of people being nice to you, we all need to learn to love the feeling of being nice towards someone else.

There are some people that are worth the compliments you give them, and you know who they are.  They’re different for everyone.  Isn’t it funny how you perceive compliments off different people?  Why is one person’s opinion so much more valuable than others?

When it comes down to it at the end of your life most the things that you worry about now and take up the most of your time won’t matter at all.  It all comes down to two things.

Have you experienced true joy in your life?

Have you brought true joy to the lives of others?

If you can’t answer those questions then was it all actually worth it?
