The Need For A Decent Public Face


We can be very concerned about how other people would think of us most of the time; which is only reasonable since we live in a society...which means as social animals, it's only normal to have this desire to feel comfortable around people.  Though most people requires to be respected and be “seen” in a good light just for the “name sake”, this need for respect and trust serves a far better purpose than to feed the ego.

Two heads is better than one- to live in a society is such a great opportunity to collaborate; to collaborate means to do greater things…and in order for people to “want” to work together with you, you must be seen as trustworthy and responsible…this I believe, should be the reason why we should maintain a good public face- in order to be trusted, so we could work together with other people to do greater things we can’t do on our own.

In our pursuit to do things of value, we have to choose who we do “things” with - because energy and time in this realm is limited…

Those who continuously and shamelessly “fake” who they are to portray a different face other than their own corrupt skin, poses a great threat to the time and energy of those who are sincere. But eventually, those who “fake it” would be found out because not everyone will be fooled… at the end of the day they will neither wake up with the company of those who sadly buy their lies, those who will cheat them in return…or …they would wake up alone in the grave they have dug themselves… It is harsh to say, but this is the truth.

Society Needs Religion

Life is both an experience and a responsibility. Truth is, every experience is only meaningful to the extent that we, ourselves, allow it to be meaningful…end of it all, we’re going to have to let go. 

I now have stopped trying to understand things beyond my senses. I’m comfortable accepting the fact, that I will not wholly understand everything in life. 

What I think I know is what’s here…what’s now… that we cannot only live for ourselves, for our actions affect one another; and  that we all only have one home…under one ether. 

Although we can be a lamp to ourselves, I believe our society needs structure…it needs religion.
