Do Unto Others


Whatever things you love to be done to you or you expect from others, do same for others also. If you expect people to be honest with you about things and not lie to you for example, be honest with them too.
If you wish you had more.... wish others have more too.
Everybody  expects to be treated well  these days, but we don't want to treat other people just the way we wish to be treated.
How ironic!!!!
We  are always looking forward or expect to be loved but we don't show love to one another or support one another with genuine love. How can we then demand from others what we never give them in return. We complain of the world being evil and unforgiving, when we are the same people who create that world.
We disappoint people who put their trust and confidence in us, we hate the very people who tell us the truth all the time. We don't even want to get closer to people who are nothing like us, people we feel are below us.
We stab people who help us in the back and we do not want to forgive others, and yet we expect to be forgiven when we do wrong

How can we expect the world and our society to be any better if we treat ourselves this way. It is a big shame on us that we have expectations for good things when we ourselves don't meet the same expectations.
Yes, indeed,  life is hard and can be difficult sometimes. But the little good we do for our close family members, friends and strangers can go a long way to make their lives a little bit better. No matter how small.
Let's be mindful that we get the same measure of reward we give others, good or bad.

There is no way we are going to get any reward of good if we have not invested any good in others. And let's not act surprised either if we get bad rewards in return in our lives because we treated others badly.
The law of cause and effect. Don't forget.
Always remember this, what is good goose is good for the gander too.

The purpose of Hardwork or Sacrifice

Why do we work so hard or sacrifice so much for something?? What does hardwork or sacrifice mean to us?? What are we expecting to get in return from our hardwork or sacrifice?? Is it all worth it at the end?? We all have come to believe and understand for many years now that it pays to work hard. Many of us have different reasons why we work hard or sacrifice so much. For majority of us, we work hard every day so we can have a lot of money to do or get whatever we wish or desire for. But the real purpose of our hardwork should not be about money but should be focused on value and impact I believe. Think of these great people who have made their mark in the history of our world..... Jesus, Mohammed, Solomon, Mahatma Gandhi, Bill Gates,  Michael Jackson, Steve Jobs, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Barack Obama among a few. What did all these great men and many more like them have in common? Value and Impact. Not the desire to make money. They had a greater purp...

USA And The Western World is Against Polygamy.. Our Ghana Law is Against LGBT Rights. Will They Allow To Set Up a Polygamy Office In Their Country??

On June 26 2015, the US supreme court struck down all state laws banning same - sex marriages and legalised in all the fifty states across America. I remember that day, pretty well watching CNN seeing then host taking the live feed Anderson Cooper in a jubilant mood. Pictures from the supreme court also painted the same picture. Men kissing men passionately, and women kissing women passionately and locking tongues as well. All this outside the US supreme court for the whole country and the whole world to see that the United States of America, the greatest free country on earth is now fully endorsing gay marriage and approving LGBT rights. The gay pride parade was insane, trust me. A few months later, some European Union countries also joined in and legalised it unanimously. I could recall on that evening I called up one of my Brazilian friends, a woman who had always been a strong advocate and a strong supporter of LGBT rights to pick her mind on what had just happened in the US. ...

The Paradox of Our Times

*THE PARADOX OF OUR TIMES* Is that we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers Wider freeways and roads but smaller viewpoints We spend more, but we have less. We have bigger houses, but smaller families More conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees, but less sense More knowledge, but less judgement More experts, but more problems More medicines, but less healthy lives We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too little and hate too often We have learnt how to make a living, but not how to make a life. We have added years to life, but not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back But have trouble crossing the street to meet or greet the new neighbour. We have conquered outer space, but not our inner hearts We've cleaned up the air in our environment  but destroyed our souls. We claim to love all people but quick to show our prejudice We've higher incomes, but lower morals. We'v...
