The criminal thrives in Society's leniency and the greedy thrive in Society's intemperance.
In a world where success is judged only by the accumulation of material wealth, anything goes as far as you have the chinks to show everyone you can. Questionable characters become heroes, entertainers become symbols and football players become millionaires in order that tycoons may be powerful.
Meanwhile, our forests become deserts, our seas become goo and the future of our offspring become darker and darker.
I don't own the truth, but I do borrow it from time to time! Here you are invited to duel in words and to provide contestation to my reflections.
The Deep Thinker
Deepthinker's Wisdoms
I. All one does has consequences; take responsibility for your actions and seek good consequences. II. All that is good for you isn't necessarily good for everyone, but all that is good for everyone is also good for you. III. Good begets good. If you desire good things, than practice good things onto others. IV. Happiness isn't a birthright, but an objective to be achieved through wisdom and hard work. V. Having something isn't as important as being someone, for no one can take away what you are. VI. Be truthful to yourself, and as a consequence never be false to others. VII. Every lie begets another. VIII. Never exchange the eternal for the ephemeral and never choose lust over love. IX. Honour and character are gifts a man gives himself, so that they are left as an enduring heritage to his offspring. X. It is better to be hated for your honest views than to be false. XI. No matter the pressure, ultimately the decision is always yours. XII. Greed is the greatest evil of our day. It is in greed's name that all of mankind's atrocities are perpetrated and it is in greed that all enduring harm begins. XIII. When the law is written by the unworthy, Legality isn't congruent with Morality. XIV. Don't ever be ashamed to serve. Contrary to popular belief, humble service onto others is what dignifies a man. XV. The Catholic Church isn't a franchise, my religion isn't a product and the Pope is not God's ombudsman. Though "customer satisfaction" is desirable, we do not place our values on sale to acquire market share, we do not customise precepts and we do not recognise "direct competition". If you do not like our policies, you are welcome to contact the CEO directly.
