"To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. Rather than speaking badly about people and in ways that will produce friction and unrest in their lives, we should practice a purer perception of them, and when we speak of others, speak of their good qualities." - His Holiness the Dalai Lama
This is something I could work at my entire life and still not get it right most of the time. I practice, I do. His words are a good reminder for me, especially now. I have been finding myself pointing out others' shortcomings when it's none of my business.
