The First Presidency Message by President Uchtdorf this month reminds us that we have a choice to look for the good or bad in people. He teaches that "there is no end to the creativity, ingenuity, and tenacity of those who look for reasons to criticize. They cannot seem to release their grip on grudges. They gossip and find fault with others. They nurse wounds for decades, taking every opportunity to tear down and demean others. This is not pleasing to the Lord, 'for where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work' (James 3:16)."
"Some look at this glass and see it as half full. Others see it has half empty. How you see it is up to you."I think it's not only important to look for the good in other people, but to look for the good in every condition or experience in life. The more we look for the good, the happier our lives will be.
