By Example

The lessons and paths that we take are not just for us, they are to be exuded through how we live and how we speak. We either become what we’ve learned or we learn not become something, there is no in between. We are the living examples for the next generation to come, the children that surround you. They listen, they imitate, and they admire you whether you know it or not. We have to start looking at ourselves as the elders now in order for us to actually assume that role later in life. The examples that you set now will stick with them for a lifetime, we are no longer the children, we are the adults that are being watched in so many ways. With so much corruption and ill intent out in the world, the kids have to rely on us for the answers on which paths to take and not to take. Invest in being an example with the chances that it’ll make someone’s life better than your own. Life is supposed to get better with time and with each generation, but if the generation before yours didn’t learn or lead by example you have no guidance, you’ll only have examples of what not to do, which leads you to figuring out what’s right by yourself. Lead by example and learn by example so that the next generation can do the same.
