Son: "Mom, when you were getting ready today, Dad complimented you."

Mom was feeling pleased: "That's unusual! He never compliments anyone. Wouldn't it be nicer if he complimented me to my face?"

Son: "He complimented you very well."

Mom was even more pleased: "Tell me what he said."

Son: "Dad said, 'Son, you have to learn from your mother in the future.'"

Mom was puzzled: "Learn what from me?"

Son: "Your mother has a great habit of looking at herself in the mirror every morning and bravely acknowledging her flaws, and doing everything she can to make up for them."

Moral: Self-reflection and self-improvement are important habits to cultivate. Embrace your flaws and work on improving yourself every day.
