Who do you compare to?

February 26, 2010 | 5 comments

I like the below quote because it reminds us that we don’t have to compete with others for stature, recognition or triumph. We are all the children of God, equally bestowed with value and worth. We do not look better by putting ourselves above another but by living up to our spiritual individuality in the first place.

The truth is that there is nothing noble in being superior to somebody else. The only real nobility is in being superior to your former self.

  1. Thanks! I like the quote! It is so good to remember and so true. I really like the new header! Is that you? Shall we get our own meaning or do you have one? In the moment-that’s mine.

  2. What a time we “early risers” would have if we could blog or email each other as the Spirit moves! Love your post Evan..and your new header…not to forget all the lovely people that “comment” on your insightful thoughts.
    Much love,
