When we suffer from the folowing, we can miss out on services such as described.
MY-ITIS (egocentric syndrome)
A very infectious disease that affects a number of people. Symptoms include the constant use of the words: "I, me, my, mine." No matter what subject is being discussed, the infected person's comments will be laced with these words. The cause is a lack of love and concern for others.
HERE'S THE CURE:
The 'prescription' to treat this disease includes the following:
- Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourself.
- Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.
- Think as Christ Jesus thought. (Philippians 2:3-5)
If one has been cured of this dreadful disease, his or her comments will be laced with: "you, your, yours".
Periodical testing is recommended as the condition may reoccur.
I hope you enjoyed reading this today. I hope to have some new listings up tommorrow and will post them here as well as Etsy.
Have a stupendously blessed day!
Tricia - it is so unfortunate that there are so many out there who have my-itis. One of the reasons I hope and pray for a loving and sharing team thread.
