Your Greatest Legacy Is Your Character

 

Integrity means you are the same person and have the same way of being all the time. It means you are an authentic person who does not wear a mask in different situations. Integrity doesn’t mean you are perfect. Integrity simply means your motives are pure, and you are sincere in every aspect of your life.

Integrity is difficult in a world that’s fake. When you have integrity, you are the same with everyone you come into contact with. When you die, everything will go, except your integrity which will get passed on from person to person and from generation to generation.

The world is obsessed with image, so how do you keep it real? Integrity. Life happens behind the scenes when no one is watching. So I ask, what do you want to be remembered for? A sharp image or a strong character?

Opposition Leads To Rewards

 

Natural muscle growth happens when a muscle is stretched and strained. The only way a muscle grows is by the ability to put more stress on the muscle via weight training. A person can test their muscle to see if it has gained strength by doing a pull up for example.

 

Spirituality is like a muscle that has been challenged by an opposition. A person can check their spirituality to see if it has gained strength by noticing how many times they resisted a sinful desire or action. The opposing forces that are overcome can lead to spiritual rewards. So, don’t forget to grow strong by strengthening your body, mind, and spirit!

Mercy and Compassion

 

By having a loving spirit and a bit of compassion you can transform your relationships. Here is what you need to do: You should be patient with people’s quirks and give them a second chance. You should give people what they need and not what they deserve.

Remember, the people who offend you need your mercy more than others. It really isn’t that hard to do. It’s all about attitude and putting your relationships first. Life is difficult enough, so have mercy for each other and don’t forget your canine friends too.

Respond to Life with Good Character

 

You don’t choose your parents, your talents, or the way you were raised, but you can choose your response to the life you have. And, the way you respond can have a tremendous impact on your existence. It’s all about the choices you make.

The freedom to make choices is given to you, and it’s your duty to be responsible with the choices you make. Remember to develop your God-given talents, like art, but more importantly develop good character because your greatest ability is responsibility!
