“No One Cares How Much You Know, Until They Know How Much You Care.”

President Theodore Roosevelt said “No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care”
The poet Robert Burns also said “Oh the gift that God could give us, to see ourselves as others see us” which leads me to ask would we really want to know how zit-picking at someone maybe we need to ask ourselves if this is what is really bugging us or is there a deep seated problem that we cannot articulate?
I am thoroughly convinced that there are many of us who could benefit from some deep soul searching or counseling to help us arrive at a mutually satisfying solution to problems that plague us, that keep us awake day and night, when we cannot let go -- and just laugh at our own pettiness.
Though only an arm chair psychologist I think that many of our personal problems arrive from a lack of self-worth, of not feeling wealthy enough, not feeling pretty enough or deeply loved by our friends and family so we criticize each other, trying to make them fit our mold of how we think people should behave.
Does any of this make sense to you?
