THERE ARE TWO WAYS OF LIFE AHEAD OF YOU, CHOOSE ONE

Bad decisions will give you the experience to make good decisions

According to the scriptures, God created man in His own image, which means each one of us has a Godly-like spirit in us to determine what is good and what is bad. Based on these Scriptures, we are able to understand the principles of love and care to treat others the way we wouldn't like to be treated.


However, we have a different world today because of greed, power, and the thirst for supremacy to dominate others. This has made the world the most dangerous place to live in. There is no peace anywhere, and each day, everyone lives in fear and anxiety.

 

There was a time when adults were known to have among the highest suicide rates, but today, the number of children committing suicide is increasing daily. Why are children no longer interested in living in this world? There are many reasons.

Many children have depressive symptoms during this coronavirus pandemic

The road of life has made it simple for us: you either have to "enter through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction," or choose the small gate and narrow road that leads to life, but only a few can find it. 

 

Therefore, when you are on the road of life and you meet the joined ways, which one do you take, the left or the right? If bad decisions give one the experience to make good decisions, why do we still have grown-up monsters among humanity as politicians today?

 

When we were children, our parents were our guides in life because we were not able to decide what was good for us or bad for us. We were, therefore, educated both at school and at home to be good people in society, yet the world is full of evil, horrifying pure evil.

 

We are seeing more violence against women, crimes against humanity, and the killing of innocent people daily throughout the world. Why are some politicians so cruel? To whom do they belong, Jezebel, Satan, Beelzebub, or another entity?

 

Crime can never be eliminated from society, but it can be reduced, and this can be done by understanding the needs of your brothers and sisters and giving them the necessary help they need. 

 

Everyone will die; no one lives forever, so if it's wrong to take someone's life and those who commit crimes serve time in prisons, why are politicians and scientists who create biological weapons to kill innocent people never prosecuted?

 

The failure of governments to put elites behind bars for the crimes they commit against humanity is one of the rewards we are reaping today. 


Until the world rises against their leaders, demands questions, and puts them behind bars for their clandestine crimes against humanity, for 20 to 30 years, the world will never know what peace is and be free from man-made diseases. 


Some of our leaders are seen as politicians, but they are not humans; they are pure evil, like King Leopold II of Belgium, Hitler of Germany, and Idi Amin of Uganda, Africa.

There Is No Child Born A Racist, Adults Teach Them

There Is No Child Born A Racist, Adults Teach Them

Children don't think of color; they always play together.


From the moment a woman conceives, she and her husband have responsibilities to take care of the child. Despite the pain a mother goes through to deliver her lovely, adorable child, there is nothing tougher than raising a child. 


Part of the responsibilities is to ensure the child is safe, healthy, respectful, educated, and disciplined, but how disciplined are children these days?


A child under the control of his parents learns what he sees and speaks the language he hears. The lessons adults teach a child are what stick in the mind of the child.

 

When a mother tells her child not to play with Black or white kids, that’s exactly what the child would avoid. 


Ask the child why he isn't playing with those Black or white kids; don't be surprised to hear, "My mother says I shouldn't play with Black kids."

 

Instead of teaching a child how to love, many adults pollute the minds of their children. By the time they reach their teenage years, some become dangerous racists on the streets.

 

The reason racism, hatred, and discrimination never end is that they cause unrest and bloodshed daily in our society. Children are the most beautiful thing on earth, yet adults pollute their minds.

 

White or Black parents teach their children to hate other children with different colors

White or Black parents teach their children to hate other children with different colors.


The children we see today are those who will be our future leaders; they, therefore, need proper manners, to know right from wrong, and healthy minds to create a better society.

 

“If I had received good instruction as a child, I would be with my family today and at peace with my neighbors. I hope and pray that all you parents in the sound of my voice will train up your children in the way they should go,” a wise quote from Charles Portis, True Grit.
