KEEPING DIRECTION
What I discovered rather late in life, unfortunately, is that life is an obstacle course, not of difficulty, but of our nature... the true person that we are inside. Regardless of what comes our way, whether it is work, career, pleasure, entertainment, or any other area of life, all of it in varying degrees test our virtues, values and morals. It's the only true test we ever face, when given an option to cheat, to remain honest......to make money or remain pure.....to climb the corporate ladder or to cherish morals....it is not winning the race, but winning the virtue race even though we are last, but have all our virtues, values and morals in tact....we are first. These are our permanent treasures which grow and develop each time we refuse a bribe or payoff or "gift" to prosper THIS IS THE REAL RACE.... the money is temporary, so is the house and car, jewels and material possessions...none of this comes with us into judgement day, but our virtues, values and morals do. It is more about who we helped along the way, than how much we collected along the way.....think about it....
