Fine No More

Watch your thoughts for they become words.
Watch your words for they become actions.
Watch your actions for they become habits.
Watch your habits for they become your character.
And watch your character for it becomes your destiny.
What we think, we become.
My father always said that… and I think I am fine.
—     British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher
[Although I disagreed with Maggie on almost everything she stood for in government, I recognize she was a powerful leader and a true force in politics during the later half of the 20th century.  Incidentally, other than the final line, there are multiple other sources for this quote including:  Emerson, Gandhi and Lao-Tzu.  So, it probably is just a well known expression Maggie’s dad passed on to her.    —    kmab]
