Remember the 60's? If not then you were there! The themes of the time were "love" and "peace"...but dispite the mantra, love and peace kind of devolved into what's going on today. The problem is that the "love" and "peace" that we preached then was an idealistic love and peace...and very little practiced.
Here are some enduring truths...
Beauty begets beauty...
Friendship begets friendship...
Caring begets caring....
and Love begets love...
But none of these things will happen if we don't practice them...if we don't sacrifice...if we don't serve...if we aren't willing to be second best in order to raise up a brother or sister....
PS...I struggle with this too...I always seem to let "me" get in the way.
