Trouble is…do we see ourselves as others see us?! And how can we improve on perfection ?. (Splutter, splutter…) xx (Speaking honestly..I don’t think we’re a bad bunch! Always room for improvement, of course.)

I agree, there is always room for improvement. And I am pretty sure that other people see us in a much better light than we see ourselves. Except for you of course! Your name says it all.

When I look in my mirror, I’m well aware that the buck starts here and the buck stops here. So anything I want changed is on my shoulders.

Best advice, but it also means that you have to take responsibility for your actions and/or reactions to things. Not everything is someone else’s fault.
