Do to others as you would like them to do for you.

It means a great deal to me that I am unique, that I don't have a clone, that nobody can make quite the same kind of contribution to the well being of the human race as I can. I suppose one of my significant aims is to fulfill my potential or come close to it. I am not especially in pursuit of popularity as I know that it is both fleeting and superficial although I suppose I want to understand people and feel that I have something worthwhile to learn from everyone I meet. I think that it is no coincidence that each of us are born with two ears and a mouth. One of my greatest desires is to be understood and I think everybody wants that. If I try to make it my aim to understand people then hopefully they might return the favour. But even if not I desire peace of mind and a clear conscience.

If I desire something from others then to be that for them would be a good starting point.
