"Let everyone sweep in front of his own door
and the whole world will be clean."
~{Johann Von Goethe}~
and the whole world will be clean."
~{Johann Von Goethe}~
Goethe reminds us a little of personal responsibility.
It's not up to us to be concerned with what others are doing, but it is up to us to be responsible for our own actions.
Not only is it unneighbourly to nitpick over the shortcomings of others, but worse, it distracts us from taking care of our own responsibilities.
While looking at our neighbours' doors, we forget to sweep in front of our own.

Lekker ek hou van Goethe, voel vir my daar was eens wyser mense.
Ja, maar soos iemand al vir my gesê het : "As ek so luister na die bog wat party mense praat, is ek seker alle wyshede is alreeds gesê!"
