Pretending as if I'm blind, only by hearing so that i would not judge based on what i see. It's been a day of limiting my sights to see things only in a good way.
make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.
-2 Peter 1:5-7
The purpose of my life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well. Happiness comes from within whereby in accomplishing what I want to do now then i shall seek for happiness.
"I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies, for the hardest victory is over self." Aristotle
Praying hard everyday, reading to give myself more knowledge in life to help others. At least i know if i can't be happy i could make use of my self to make someone else happy. It may sound stupid to those who are selfish or inconsiderate. It would sound silly to me 2 months ago. All else changes except one's character. As a character is build from foundation, if the foundation is not properly mould then the character will not be properly build. Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
Take time off to take a look at things around you and think about your own character, is it good or bad, is it really good or it is good because you've manipulate it with lies. A true good character is a good character shown without even a single word to explain itself. It will show itself.
