Live for Tomorrow, Not for Today

           The greatest problem in the world today is that people divide themselves up into groups or families according to their own personal beliefs and wants and it is very difficult for one to communicate one with another.

          There is a great difficulty in moving from one group to another as, according to the loyalties held by one, it is perceived to be dishonourable to the rest.

          All ‘God’s’ created children have one important thing in common – they all come from his unconditional love and are endowed with some of his mighty wisdom to experience life on this plain of existence.

          In order to survive, we all need to be aware of the wants and needs of others who are around us.  Then we are able to help each other and live in peace and harmony, as people do when they give and receive from and to each other.

           Unfortunately the men and women of this world tend to be happy to take what they need, but are unhappy to give what another soul needs to exist more comfortably on this earth.

          So groups of demarcation become formed and camps of self-interest are made, so that they can live more comfortably themselves as opposed to helping those who are worthy.

We have all heard the expression, “You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours.”  In other words, “I’m not going to help you unless there is something worthwhile in it for me!”

          This without question is the beginning of corruption and it has become endemic in our today’s society.  Our society is global and incorporates all races, colours and religious educations.

          Some people are worse than others and some nations have more corruption than others and there are some who are better at covering it up than others!

          All people in our society, whether rich or poor, have to act in the right and honest way and to be seen to do so.  Honesty is a basic requirement of any group of people from a couple, who marry or live together or those who work in the corridors of power for the betterment of their nation.

          Everywhere people feel that if they act behind closed doors and, out of the public gaze, they will get away with bad practices and feather their own nest at the expense of others.

          The whole point of it all is that if you behave dishonestly, how can you live with yourself and exist as one with your conscience?  How can you face your partner, if you have broken the vows or promises that you made together?

          People think that by turning their backs and not listening to their consciences they can do anything and behave how they want to and no one will think any the less of them, because they will not know the truth of what is underneath!

          Wrong!  Justice has a way of coming to the surface and no one can hide for ever.  Those who commit wrongs and die before they are exposed have not got away with it, but are then presenting themselves to a Higher Court and will be judged and exposed.

They will have to make amends for their misguided thoughts and actions and will be directed on how to do so until they have learnt from their wrongdoings and helped those who suffered from their actions.

If you want an easy life, then live right and help others as best you can, because the alterative will bring you a heavy self-inflicted burden to carry, and in the Higher Court’s time for all to see you for who you really are.
