\u00a0 \u00a0In the previous article, we tackled the life path companions, whose hearts are filled with love, giving and sacrifice; they are enriching the life of whom they meet along the path. Along the path life, we encounter people who have wrong concepts, through which they lead their life and deal with others. Adopting such wrong concepts in the life path does cause suffering to you and to those around you. A lady recounts that her six year old boy made a mistake one day, she spoke to him, blamed him and counseling him not to repeat his deed, however the boy replied, \u201cNo, mom, I will do it again!\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Astonished at her child, the mother tried to speak gently to him: \u201cthis is wrong, son!\u201d Yet, he obstinately answered: \u201cand I will do it again; I did it and will do it!\u201d The lady decided to have an opportunity to think and inquire about the proper attitude she would follow.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0The mother seized an opportunity to speak to her boy, she asked him: \u201cdo you see what you did yesterday a right behavior?\u201d He answered: \u201cmom, I know that what I did was wrong!\u201d \u201cSo, why do you insist on it since you know it is wrong?\u201d And here came the shocking answer of the child: \u201cI did that lest I would be of a weak personality! I will do whatever I want to do, even if it is wrong!\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0The mother kept thinking about what she would do to correct the concepts that are mixed up in her child\u2019s mind, as this would bear nothing but failure and pain. After few days, she intended to do something wrong before her child, who quickly corrected her mistake, she accepted his words and correction, then discussed with him that a strong personality does not require man to be insistent on his opinion, as a strong person is who realizes his mistake and correct it in courage and bravery.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Misconceptions are widely spread among the pursuers of life, until their life became a demonstration of wrong concepts, which steal their happiness and comfort, causing others to suffer. Some may see that life methods have been changes, ages have been replaced, and concepts have been modified, however, man keeps searching throughout his life for those who bear perfect high principles to trust them. Dear reader, remember that man\u2019s strength lies in his ability to understand himself and his behaviors, and to correct the wrong parts in himself; hence, he will be able to change the entire world. It is said: \u201cwatch your thought for they are to turn to words, watch your words for they are to turn to deeds, watch your deeds for they are to turn to habits, watch your habits for they are to form your personality, and watch your personality for it will identify your fate\u201d.<\/span><\/h2>\n

And \u201con life\u201d we are still sailing\u2026<\/span><\/h2>\n
