Word of the Day: Compare

com·pare /kəmˈper/, verb: 1. to examine the character or qualities of an object or person, especially in order to discover similarities or differences “When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you.” Lao Tzu, c. 531 BCE “Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.” Helen Keller, 1880 – 1968 “Try not to get lost in comparing yourself to others. Discover your gifts and let them shine.” Jennie Finch, 1980 – pictured: Members of the Alamo Rotary Club with students from Rancho Romero Elementary School, CA.
