Save the cheerleader, save the world.
 In all seriousness, thanks for posting this - it's something I desperately needed to read today.

 ...and you are welcome. I liked it. Some should know this is not a broad generalization but rather advice about how to manage our inner self in small increments. I become a better person if I find something positive to think about someone or something rather than it's opposite value. |

No, if you constantly encourage yourself to hate your surroundings, you'll find it harder and harder to enjoy them. If you train yourself to find people's flaws, you'll get better at it and worse at finding their better traits.
This is a parable, and you're supposed to overlook the tiny details in search of the greater intent. And I think it's very relevant, and will be for a very very long time.
