I started thinking about your question, "As an adult, who do you compare yourself to? Why, and how do you measure up?"
I compare myself to me as I was yesterday:
- Am I a better person than the day before and what can I do to be a better person today?
- How can I better provide for my wife and sons physical, spiritual, and emotional needs?
- How can I make someone smile? Is there someone in my daily experience that needs my help?
I measure just up because I try. As long as I keep trying to do better tomorrow I will always measure up. Sounds corny, I know, but this works for me.
