not quite a proverb but a reminder to me that people watch me and how I act - when Ghandi was asked by a reporter what his message was - he replied by saying "My life is my message"
The other one of Ghandi's I like is "Be the change you want to see happen".
Oh, was it Ghandi that said that? I love that - but it's SO not easy!
Maybe not, but if there's more than just you, that automatically makes it a little easier....and if it's God's change!
Sorry, this is getting confusing, logged in under the wrong name! I'm me at the moment, not her!
Dawn,you are officially more confused than me - duel identity crisis!
hhmmm Dawn you remind me of the film 'the many faces of Jane' or was it Eve?
