Stay true to yourself

Maria DuvalPeople used to say and advise us not to judge anyone by the cover. That is very true and we hear from it often yet we are still judging people by the cover.

We judge our colleagues, business contacts and even our family members by their status quo of living. When we see something carrying a less glamourous gadget than us, we still say to ourselves,oh dear, there are really people carry this kind of useless metal piece around! Another good example is, this so and so is driving a toy car! We think ourselves more superior than those who live in small houses, drive small cars and eat at cheaper restuarants. Do you make this kind of chiding remark? I think what we think of others will eventually be the measure that is used against us some day.

Think about it intently, don't you think it is very labourious trying to live above people? You miss the fun and joy of spiritual living. We have lost the "freedom" if that's the case and life would be miserable sub-consciously.

So, start living truly now and do not deceive yourself anymore!
