You learn a lot about people when they don't get what they want from you. The process of learning and teaching is lifelong, growing a sense of caring. But pitying and being pitied often does not give real. That's why God bestows wealth on certain people for the purpose of giving real to the needy. What you can control: Your time Your effort Your vision Your habits Your health Your friends Your attitude Your honesty Your humility Your mindset Your network Your integrity Your thoughts Your reactions Your emotions Your decisions Your expenses Your dedication Your perspective “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” ― Aristotle “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” ~ Oscar Wilde
