Are You Successful?

Are You Successful? 




 Today, I'll be asking all of you what seems like an easy question. Are you successful? Maybe you are working a job, making a good salary, and have a beautiful spouse and kids. That makes me you successful, right? Maybe so to most people's standards, but I'm going to play hardball with you. Are you at a point in your life where you can say that you encourage others to be positive and you always spread a loving message? Doesn't sound easy, really, does it? To be positive one hundred percent of the time is hard when you live a stressful life. Things like family, friends, and jobs carry quite a bit of stress with them. Are you able to be successful, after all is said and done? Do you blaze a bright and positive trail for others to follow? Do you chase after justice? 


 Success isn't easily obtained in the arena of morality. There are many points in life where people will ask you to do something immoral, and many times it will be someone in a work setting asking you such questions. Are you going to throw away moral behavior and thus your soul to appease someone at work? Are they stipulating that if you don't do the immoral behavior, you could lose pay or perhaps your job altogether? It's more common than anyone could think. To get “successful” in the world we are often confronted with the decision to do something that is wrong. What is a person to do when their paycheck and all that comes with it is put into jeopardy?


 Success should always be considered on a spiritual level. That doesn't mean you should sacrifice your own hard-earned dollars for someone else. Instead, we should work towards a means of helping others without giving them something material. Our success does not revolve around giving handouts to the poor. Instead, we should give sound wisdom and encouragement to the one struggling. A dollar or two to get something to eat will not buy them food for life. We create a state of ignorance if we are going to continually aide beggars. Why aren't we concerned about the success of our community and the laws that keep society productive? America is a democracy that thrives off of capitalism. Should we abandon our own success to carry the ones without incentive to make their lives successful is truly a nightmare. 


 Your success relies on your morality and your allegiance to those you love and everything that your country represents. We are not a divided group of countries, but instead one world. We need peace, but that is an unobtainable dream. I do not want a one world religion, but more people dedicated to supporting each other with love. Religion does not bother me, but a world with no differences would bore me. I represent liberation to free those who are bound in shackles, and god, if you're suffering, just know that I wish I could free you. Even the strongest of all of Solomon’s Knights cannot be everywhere at once. Yes, we never died out, and my great ancestor has commanded me to assist you, and protect you, no matter what the cost. I bleed templar red, and I will not back down from the conglomerate giants. I wish to revive our once good name, and accomplish our ultimate goal. I love you, and I want you to know, there will come a day, where there is no more tears, and heaven will be a reality.
