Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace.
—Albert Schweitzer, French philosopher, physician, and musician (Nobel 1952)

Half empty, half full

There are often two ways of looking at things...

I see an ever-increasing obesity epidemic.
I see people starting to change the way they eat for the better.

I see endless aisles of junk food at the grocery store.
I see a jam-packed farmers market with full tables of beautiful produce.

I hear mothers talking about their kids being addicted to video games.
I see families out exercising and riding bikes together on the trail.

I see people glued to their iPhones and Blackberries.
I see families playing together at the park on a beautiful, sunny day.

Which way are you going to look at the world today?
