Often times, we are frustrated by their worsening mannerisms and their presence steals our own peace away. Well, maybe you can’t change anyone but you can determine how people around you affect your inner peace.

To improve others, you must deal with them in the light of their uniqueness. Not even you want to change before being admitted into other people’s circles; why make such demand on others?
