The Path to a Truly Better Life

Firefly-Indian-young-man-walking-on-a-Path-83088.jpg

In our modern world we often hear that love is the chief rule or benefit of life. And this is true to a degree. But did you know that wisdom tells us that there are some things that we should just hate? We should hate all wrong things if we want to achieve a better life. Here are some examples: proud eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.

Surely we can achieve a better life if we take advantage of people. But that’s a better life built on evil, which cannot last forever. Such efforts ruin our reputation and people we know, especially those close to us, will know that we are not trustworthy people.

Wisdom teaches that there is a better way. Wisdom says, “Keep your father’s commands and forsake not your mother’s teaching. Bind them on your heart and tie them around your neck.”

Let wisdom teach us about respect and honor as ways to achieve a better life. Would you like a better life that goes farther even than this? Then click on this link to learn more.

Be Responsible

Everyone needs a break at one time or another. Sometimes, the pressures of family and work weigh us down, and we seek an escape. Taking a break once in a while can be a good thing. But avoiding our responsibilities can also be a trap. We must never allow our need for a break to turn into laziness or procrastination. Have you heard this proverb?

“A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.”

Never let your desire for rest or a break turn into something that can ruin your dreams. Remember that no one is more responsible for your successes or failures in life than you. Everything rides on your shoulders. How will you handle the things that life throws at you without simply ignoring them and hoping they go away by themselves?

Did you know that nature around us has many lessons for us about how to live a better life? It’s true! Consider this:

“Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief, officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer and gathers her food in harvest.”

What kind of person do you want to be? What is there around you that you want to gain? Are you willing to do anything to get it? Even if that includes doing something wrong?

Many people gain wealth, relationships, and power through dishonest means. They disregard how their actions might shame others or bring them harm. They only focus on what they want, no matter how it might hurt others.

Have you ever been tempted to do that? Many people have. Ultimately, the dishonest person will pay a price for his sin. Consider this wise saying:

“The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin. He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly, he is led astray.”

While we all want relationships that bring us happiness and joy, but not all relationships are the same, and some we must simply avoid at all costs. Have you heard this proverb?

“The lips of a forbidden woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil, but in the end, she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword.”

Everyone wants love. There is no greater reward in a relationship than to know that you love someone and that they love you in return, even deeply. Love relationships are the best kind of relationships. But how do you know if you’re in a bad relationship right now, especially with the opposite sex? Just what is a “forbidden woman?” It’s a person who seeks sexual pleasure and cheating relationships over anything else. Such a person brings destruction to relationships and doesn’t build them up.
