Leave it better than you found it
editLife is as simple or complex as any subset, and mastering one's behavior is no exception;
As a child, I left a toy-room (6 siblings, mind you) untidy</mdash><mdash/>not that I left my own toys out</mdash><mdash/>, so to my surprise, I was lovingly scolded by my mother as I walked away, "always leave things better than you find them."
That's been my better judgement in life; as long as I follow this advice, I tend to be most fulfilled and content despite obstacle or failure. P. Bunger :-) 23:51, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
