need to look around

Today was a late start because I stayed up too late reading last night.  Late for me is 7am....I know to most people thats early but if I want quiet alone time, I have to get up at 6am or earlier. Did 20 mins...5.46 km ... on the stationary recumbant bike at the gym. 

Todays takeaway:
Philippians 2:3-4
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others.  (Biblegateway)

I had a discussion last night that led to some questions about why a person made the decisions that she did in a particularly difficult situation. My only answer I can see  is that the two grown ups involved made the decisions based on what was most beneficial for them and totally ignore the needs of the children.  This verse is so convicting. Am i making decisions based on me or am I also taking my family into acount? I need to think more about how my decisions affect those around me
