Think of Others

     I love gymnastics!  It just makes me feel good.  I love competing.  It makes me feel like a winner.  I love watching my friends to great.  It makes me feel good to congratulate them.  Sometimes people only focus on themselves.  I do it too.  But, I try to fix it.  When I start thinking only of myself I do something good for someone  else and it makes me feel good.  When I am at gymnastics and someone goes then I go the first thing I do is go up to them and ask what score they got.  Sometimes we need to do something for someone else and I know I don't usually do it.  But, it just makes you feel good to something good for someone else.  Just care.  It may be something little.  Like going to a homeless shelter and giving them four rolls.  It may not matter to you to give away such little food.  But, that might be food that they haven't had in days. 
     Don't think just of yourself.  Today I was at a meet and I saw people who after their friend who fell off the beam twice went and the first thing they did afterwards was stare at the scoreboard and wait on their score.  When they finally went to ask their friend what score they got and their friend would said something like 7.750 and they said oh I got 8.950.  There was no, "Oh, thats ok" or "You'll do better next time" or even "That's great!  Especially with two falls!"  They didn't congratulate or have sympathy.  They just said the score that they got.  Some people are just like that.  But, some people can fix it and even if it is you to be careless of others please try to fix it.  Just help others, please.  For them, me and even yourself.  You will feel better.  :)
