I came across this story today, and well I just loved it. It was too long to print here so I just took an excerpt from it, and I thought it was fitting, just did not know what topic to put it under, so I made this one up. However, if any of you feel that it would be better place somewhere else, please feel free to move it. thanks
If you plant honesty, You shall reap trust.
If you plant goodness, You shall reap friends.
If you plant humility, You shall reap greatness.
If you plant perseverance, You shall reap victory.
If you plant consideration, You shall reap harmony.
If you plant hard work, You shall reap success.
If you plant forgiveness, You shall reap reconciliation.
If you plant openness, You shall reap intimacy.
If you plant patience, You shall reap improvements.
If you plant faith, You shall reap miracles
But...
If you plant dishonesty, You shall reap distrust.
If you plant selfishness, You shall reap loneliness
If you plant pride, You shall reap destruction.
If you plant envy, You shall reap trouble.
If you plant laziness, You shall reap stagnation.
If you plant bitterness, You shall reap isolation.
If you plant greed, You shall reap loss.
If you plant gossip, You shall reap enemies.
If you plant worries, You shall reap wrinkles.
If you plant sin, You shall reap guilt.
So be careful what you plant now. It shall determine what you will reap tomorrow. The seeds you now scatter will make life worse or better - your life or the ones who will come after. Yes, someday, you will enjoy the fruits, or you will pay for the choices you plant today.
Very little good can come out of the almost constant anger that you read from the DD board, and what good points they make are masked by misplaced rage.
