Constructive Review of My Character Defects

The building blocks to knowledge and wisdom are constructed through the lessons of my character defects if I constructively review my conduct each day, asking where I am resentful, selfish, dishonest, or afraid.
I need to remember to review constructively, not destructively.
Destructive review is when I ask, "what's the matter with me anyway." or "how could I be so stupid?"
These question lead to morbid reflection or remorse and seriously affect my self esteem.
In constructive review I ask, "what will I do next time?"
With constructive review I progressively eliminate the defect and replace it with wisdom.

Who We Become

We can't control our destiny,
but we can control who we become.

Anne Frank

A World Born

Each friend represents a world in us,
a world possibly not born until they arrive.
--Anais Nin

My individual character is growing, changing, maturing.
My understanding of others and my experiences deepens with each unfolding event.
The world is ever changing.
By design, not coincidence, I will befriend those people who need me, just as I need them.
