Matt 16.26
For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole
world, and losses his soul?
It takes fundamental knowledge of who you are, how we
should behave. A master refuses to return evil for evil because
if he does, he is no longer in control of himself. It takes inner
balance by knowing yourself to be in control of one self.
Nobody is more unhappy than a perpetual “reactor” - he
whose life experience is not rooted within himself, but in the world
around him. His moods swing according to how others treat him.
He is needlessly at the mercy of other peoples actuation.
A reactor is a social parasite, who sucks approval and praise
from others to give him a false feeling of joy which will not last.
He agonizes over the slightest criticism because it tends to con-
firm his own doubts about his self-worth. The slightest suspicion
of unpopularity with some people would drive him crazy.
In this world, we are all actors of the life God has given us.
Let us not forget the script we are supposed and designed to do
to make this world a better place to live. If we want change, let
the change begin from us and not from outside by being in-
control of our actions and attitudes. The world needs ACTORS
not re-ACTORS.
The choice is yours . . .
