"Only those live who do good."

- Count Leo Tolstoy 

What this quote means is that the people who do the correct choices through out life are really the individuals living it properly well. Let me put it this way, imagine your life full of bad decisions. How would you feel through out your journey of living if all you did were mistakes and never really learn from them or tried to correct yourself before or afterwards? Pretty dull place to walk through don't you think? You know, choosing the wrong paths just makes the ground more complicated and dangerous to walk upon. It slows you down, as it feeds on the privileges you once had before making certain choices. Always do the greatest of good if you want to live a good life.

Albert Einstein

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."

What this great man means by this quote is well kind of the last statement we did, just because everybody is doing a certain thing, it doesn't make it right. You can be at a party with a number of people, some might be drinking or smoking pot as for some of them offer to you. I mean, they are all doing it, you would be quite a let down to  them if you don't join in the "fun". Either way, what is the right thing to do? You already know what is the correct thing to do. Yet, the feeling of being part of a group and not trying to let down your "friends" is something you really don't wanna do. If you choose to take part, you are doing the incorrect. People should also know better than to drag people into doing something they know they shouldn't be doing.

I have chose this topic because I sometimes, when I have time to do anything, I write my own poetry.

It is a way for me, besides drawing, to describe what I want to express from what I feel. I'm not a very good poet for as far as I say, but I enjoy writing it either way. Here is an example of a poem I wrote a while back just to share;

It's funny how much of a fool 

Someone could be

When fallen into the depths of love

Their eyes never see

Always the final one to realize

Blind

Believing the spoken lies

From a phony lover

These intimate feelings of pure fiction 

Have drowned you in  a place

Where your heart is lost

and your mind far from knowing truth 

I love reading poetry as well, because there is poems out there that I can really relate to, and find definition to from other people's perspective.

The flu is a contagious disease that is common and deadly

It affects everyone across the globe and as many as 646,000 people have died from it each year.

Everyone around the world is trying to do something about it, for it affects everyone, to the little kids and the elders. CDC, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, have been stating that disease usually affects elder people and people who live poor nations. They have been building capacity to detect and respond to outbreaks, and strengthening health systems to improve the health of the most vulnerable and those most at risk.

"Even if everyone is doing it, wrong is never right."

- Russell M. Nelson

We have all committed something wrong in life, maybe because a number of people were doing so. I mean, I am sure you knew what the negative was within their actions but, everyone else was doing it, so why not you? You know it is wrong going around doing these certain things. They have not been caught so you probably won't either right? That eager vibe to be part of something that everyone is doing, wrong or right and just the feeling of being part of a group. I'm not saying it is bad to be part of something everyone is doing, just know your rights from wrong. Do not just follow or agree with certain things just because everyone else is, depending if it is correct or not.

"You can't be right by doing wrong; you can't be wrong by doing right."

What this quote is basically stating is that you always have to choose the right. Even if the wrong choice seems like the only way you can go, you always have to do what is correct. Put it simpler, there is nothing right from doing what is absolute wrong, like, let us say, cheat on a test right? You get a passing grade, and an astonishing score but overall, it doesn't make it acceptable. You didn't really earn the grade you got by using a method that is completely wrong. If you are always willing to choose what is right then you can not really be wrong.

"Enthusiasm makes the difference."

- Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

What is the point of doing or being something without enthusiasm? Like me for example, I joined band with enthusiasm because we need to have that sort of feel when we play our music. Give out a good vibe to the people who hear and play with determination. If you live in doubt or the pity of your own self where would you be in life if you don't see the best in things for once? Look at life through a new perspective instead of a dull one and then you will find a greater meaning.

"It's not about achieving your dreams. It's about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma (good results, destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of it's self. The dreams will come to you."




What this quote means is that if you choose to have determination into working without giving up then you just might achieve the dream you want to accomplish. You must be patient because of course you are gonna fail the first few times but, if you are willing to achieve then it will happen. Do not live in doubt, do not put yourself down, always look forward to the good the day has to offer. Life is full of well, ups and downs but you will have to look beyond that and make it through every tragedy you have during the ride. Be happy with yourself and know that you can achieve anything if you really set your mind to it. Lead your life to something you can be happy with doing and being. Most importantly, have fun everyday that you can. It is your life, live it the way you want to.
