Goodness is the only investment that never fails.
–HENRY DAVID THOREAU :
When the ethical and behavioral patterns of some people around us are showing signs of rapid decline, we need to save and invest more in goodness. Our moral capital gains are secured when we maintain a good relationship with others.

Love is not a problem that requires a solution or remedy. Love itself is solution, the master key that erases conflict and eradicates hatred. The more we love the more we embrace peace and achieve eternal bliss.

— FRANKLIN P. JONES :
A person badgered by insecurities, intellectual deficiency and character problem will always consider honest criticism as enigma and direct assault against his ego.

No “solid-rock” relationship can survive the super tsunami called mistrust. A relationship suffers a major snag once infidelity creeps in. All our investments–emotional, financial and otherwise–will crumble like a deck of cards when doubt rears its ugly head.

Love the giver more than the gift.
–BRIGHAM YOUNG :
There is no golden egg if there is no goose that lays it. There is no dollar remittance in the family if there is no OFW. There is no fruit if there is no tree. The giver, the source or producer, must occupy the front seat in our gallery of heroes and providers.

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t goin’ away.
–ELVIS PRESLEY :
Even death can’t subdue the truth, the paramount veracity that lives beyond the realms of physics, superstition and cosmological flux. Empires and civilizations have perished, but not the truth. Bones and flesh will turn into ashes, not the truth. Fidelity to truth should be imperishable.

Our fat salary and other mouth-watering allowances doesn’t give us a fat edge over others. The size of our heart is not measured by the payroll’s dotted lines. It is how sincere are we willing to spend time and money, and how deep is our intention to extend a helping hand.

The definition of success to me is not necessarily a price tag, not fame, but having a good life, and being able to say I did the right thing at the end of the day.
— JEREMY LUKE :
Success means peace of mind at the end of the day. Some of us may not be able to wake up anymore in the morning. With peace of mind, we go home to the Lord fulfilled and baggage-free. Our final journey does not require us to bring a jar of jewelry, cash or any other material emoluments.
