We live our lives based on trust; trust our family, trust teachers with our children, trust banks with our money, trust our houses to keep us warm and dry and trust our brains to keep us knowing right from wrong, trust God to protect us when this life is over.
Yet, the world today is in danger of becoming so self driven that such trust is called into question. A desire to make a good life for ourselves largely comes through making money. This sometimes comes at the detriment to family ties, loyalty and our own moral compass.
It is so easy to blame others for our own shortcomings and mistakes but the only person who can take responsibility for our actions are ourselves. Thinking of others and putting those more in need before ourselves helps us to keep a healthy outlook on the world and to be content with our lot.
