Living to Live Another Day

Our world is getting more and more challenged and the need to get results and be seen as an achiever would increase over the coming years.

Tendencies, vices, idiosyncrasies would fly and the propensity towards egocentrism and self-centredness would multiply. The urge to make things better would drive individuals, groups and systems to all manners of 'res' - reform, repositioning, restructuring, reorganizing etc.

There might be decisions to move on, move in or move out. Whatever the decisions would be, it becomes expedient that the fundamental values of love, trust and respect for one another are deeply regarded and esteemed at all times.

There might be reasons to leave someone’s life, someone’s job or someone’s circle of influence or network; leave with some dignity and respect for them and the opportunity they have given you. Value the time they have shared and the trust they have bestowed. Be sure you don’t burn bridges, betray trust and rubbish opportunities.

Your aspirations are so important, so also is a need to acknowledge and respect what matters to others.

No matter who you are or what you have achieved, never run people down. Never trample on their integrity and personality on your way to wherever you are going.

However big or daunting your dreams and desires might be or however traumatizing or intimidating your fears and challenges might appear, leave peaceably with all men. Avoid constructing and placing people in boxes. Respect opportunities, value friendship, cherish trust and in all, live to live another day.
