One of the physicians in our practice is retiring and going on a mission to Florida. He's had a couple of retirement parties, and spoke in church this Sunday as a farewell. As I've listened to him talk and the tribute others have given him it makes me think about what others would say about me. I don't so much base my life about what others think, but I wonder what words would explain my character. If I had only a few words to describe myself, what would they be. Would they be the words I want them to be. What is the measure of a man? or Woman? I don't so much want to compare myself to others but there are great men and women we know, our ancestors etc that are good examples to follow.
I think I would like to be:
hardworking, playful, compassionate, understanding
It's amazing all the actions that would come from those four simple words. I think I will take one word each day - a character word and try to behave in that manner.
What words would you want used to describe your character?
