Seeking Peace: Living Nobly while striving to do what's morally right.

Regardless of who you are as a person, you will forever be lied on, cheated, talked about, or mistreated. If you ever find yourself in those emotions, seek peace in prayer. You can be the nicest person in the world and not everyone is going to respect you. You can be the most respectable person in the world, and not everyone is going to respect you. When you come in contact with those who mistreat you, talk about you, and so on, understand that it’s not your fault because others don’t see you in God’s image. Many people want to see you living a life based on how they live and how you should live according to society. You can impact the world in so many ways and there’s always at least someone trying to rip you apart. Keep in mind that there will always be someone who will talk about you, ignore you, and look more at the bad stuff to talk about you and not have anything positive to say. Those people….They don’t appreciate you at all neither as in accepting you for who you are. The only time many people will ever accept you on your character is only when you have three things, and throughout my time here in college, it’s one of the few things I realized. As a person, you will never be fully appreciated unless it involves wealth, money, or fame. Let’s say there are two people, a rich man and a poor man. The rich man is wealthy with fame and money. Everyone respected him. The poor man worked most of his time even when he doesn’t want to or have to. People often went to the poor man for help, guidance, wisdom, and even offered him food and shelter. There were times when the rich man was often celebrating his success while the poor man was still getting unequal treatment by his own people. One day, the poor man died, and what many people failed to realize is that his morals, love, obedience, and contributions kept him going at living life even more even when he was treated badly as we treat those who are lower than us bad. The one time when the poor man got his respect gained was after he had died. Now we realize that he wasn’t famous, but remembered with a great contribution. As you all seek the wisdom and spread the love throughout your life, I encourage you to contribute in every way beyond those three (Money, Wealth, and Fame)- “Live nobly as a Poor Samaritan who is striving to do what’s morally right”.  In other words, live your life accordingly on how YOU want to live with the help of God guiding your life. Understand that it’s going to take time to get your reward. God will place the right people in your life at different times. He also will take away, and bring back people constantly just to see how well you do on your journey. Forgive others for what they don’t know much about you. Forgive others for that they don’t understand your heart when you’re being lied on, cheated, talked about, and mistreated. Just think how Jesus felt when He was living his final hours. Respect others, don’t get jealous of others, Live accordingly to how you want to live and do things that is morally acceptable, and above all, seek common peace within yourself. Your contribution and rewards are a much greater asset to the outcome of anything that is important other than money. Be Humble and Remembered versus Greedy, Popular, and Wealthy. You are a seed that can help change the world.


Love Always
