Essay / Personal Philosophy Essay - 689
I am a person with true values and beliefs and determined to succeed. A person's character traits and faith are what make them a true human being. Faith is important for germinating the living roots of hope and virtue. Hope is what I use to continue to persevere through life's difficult trials. I build my life on certain principles including the elements to handle real life situations. I am a righteous person and I believe in three quotes that will help me succeed in life in the future: “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do it. Hatred cannot drive out hatred; only love can do it. - Martin Luther King, Jr. True words of wisdom enable us to come together and work with each other rather than against each other. Black, red, white, orange; the color of your skin never matters, what matters is what you do as a person through your actions. I am a caring and compassionate human being and I do not believe in violence, only self-defense. Instead of saying something hurtful, say something kind and treat others the way you would like to be treated. Hatred only allows more hatred to grow like a fermenting fungus that infects those infected. If someone says something mean or mean to you, just say a nice comment. Saying a mean comment will only feed the evil beast of hatred. In order to kill the beast, you must starve it with kindness. Love your family and friends, and love your enemies more, for they are the ones who need love the most. Death can only become hatred, life can only become love. “No one is perfect and everyone is different, but everyone is beautiful in their own way and that’s what makes us special.” " - Unknown. This is a very true principle, no one is perfect. This is why...... middle of paper ......tunate. “Life is a dream for wise people, a game for fools, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor.” - Sholom Aleichem. These lessons and traits that I learned myself have helped me become a better person with a reliable future. Forgive everyone who wrongs you, love your family and friends, but love your enemies more. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Remember that achieving perfection is impossible in your life on earth and remember that you show who you are through your actions, not what you look like. Be grateful for your current state; you are alive and can change the world and everyone in it through your actions and words. Help, give and pray for those less fortunate. “If you bring out what is in you, what you give birth to will save you. If you do not produce what is in you, what you do not produce will destroy you. » – Jesus Christ.
