I think this should be the philosophy of everyone, despite their religion. Doing good should be a mantra that we all live by, and we can tell when we are doing good by how we feel. If you are feeling good, then you are doing good for yourself and for others. But, if you are feeling bad, then you are doing bad for yourself and others. Let 's all do what feels good because it is very important for creating a better world.
12. We All Want To Live Forever, But...
"Everyone desires to live long, but no one would be old."
Is this quote ever true! We all want to live forever, but we want to do it with the gusto of a teenager. It is truly a shame that our most energetic years are wasted on our ignorance. But, they are. All we can do is keep ourselves as healthy as possible. The good news is that in this day and age, it is easier than ever to do. We know more about maintaining good health, and we have more medicine and machines to maintain good health than ever before, and we should be making our health a priority - as much as living a long and healthy life is.
13. You Can Have Peace In Your Life
"Avoid popularity if you would have peace."
I think that all kids should be taught this in school at a very young age and every year until they graduate. The curriculum on how to have a peaceful life needs to be understood before a kid signs up to become a star or put themselves out there on a reality show for everyone to remember.
I don 't think there is anything wrong with
The topic I chose to write about that interest me the most is religion. I chose religion because there are lots of differences when it comes to religion and cultures. I felt it was important to acknowledge three religions that our practiced today. The religion groups I chose to discuss in my paper are the Muslims, Santeria and Judaism .
As the prophet Micah says in the Tanakh, “He [Adonai] has told you, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requires of you: Only to do justice and to love goodness...” (JPS Hebrew-English Tanakh, Micah 6:8).
American poet, Ralph Emerson once said that the importance of life “is not length of life, but depth of life” meaning that life is not measured by how long we live on this Earth but rather what we do with the time that we have on this Earth ("Ralph…Emerson."). The quote by Emerson is very similar to the ideology of French Renaissance philosopher Michel de Montaigne. Although the two men were from two different times, like Emerson, Montaigne also preached that life need not be measured by length but rather by use. No man knows when he is going to die therefore we need not concentrate on our death but rather we need to concentrate on the time we have living and achieve and accomplish as much as we can with the time we are granted. A great example
People have always said," You dont know what you have untill its gone", truth is we knew what we had; just as hummas we forget the vaule and how easy it is to lose it in the snap of a finger. Somtimes as each day goes by we dont realize how much we have to lose, and at any moment anthing can change, and taking somthing grantend could hurt you more in the long run then realzing what you took for grantend and having it become to late to fix it. There are many reasons why i agree with this quote, and to start off i would have to say in this life we tend to forget to cherrish each moment with our friends and family; and to live each day like your last. Anthor reason why i support this quote to the fullest is because we live in world full of decgions, and just by
Muhammad, Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha), and Jesus Christ were extremely influential leaders and were all the keys to establishing three of the major religions today; Islam, Buddhism and Christianity. These religions are currently the largest religions in the world and influence billions of people every day. All three of these men have shaped the course of history and redefined the destiny of mankind. They all lived very interesting lives and preached different lessons to their followers. I would like to start this essay by first looking into the history of each of these men and later comparing and contrasting the way they lived their lives as well as their teachings.
“We Live to Die”, a saying that is very much correct. Part of being a human being is going through a cycle of changes throughout life. One never remains the same from the day they were born to the day they die. The cycle begins once one takes their first breath, then grows old and as time passes further down the line of the human life cycle one then dies. That is when life for one comes to an end. As someone continues to grow there are a stage, everyone must pass, it is the stage of late adulthood. As Erik Erikson stated the last stage his 1982 Erikson theory is later adulthood is age sixty years and older. During this stage of life, there are many trials and tribulations that elderly people endure, or for some it can go as smooth as a baby
According to my ethics, we have to do good to everyone no matter what. So in this
Following the rules putted by any religion might not transform any person into a better person, but at least if everybody follows the rules, it probably makes the live better.

Children need to be exposed to violence to understand it and to help prevent violent outbursts later on in life. Awareness is everything in this century, so better to prepare your children than to let them only experience violence when something bad happens. Violence is thanks to the human race and it is something that will be in our lives forever or until we can find peace within ourselves, so better have the knowledge than to be
All through history, religion and what God someone follows has drastically affected their lifestyle by affecting their political statuses. The way someone lived was determined by what religion they followed politically,economically and socially. Most colonies official religion was Anglican/Church of England or Christianity but some did not have an official religion which created problems. The slaves that were forcefully immigrated to the colonies were not able to practice their own religion because some owner were extremely religious and other were not able to connect to their God or Gods. American history demonstrate that religion and the God someone followed had drastic effects with politics by not being able to be part of it, economy by not being able to own any land and make money for himself , and society by not being about to join any communities or organization extremely affected slaves to reach true happiness in the place they call home.
Just like this quote has impacted my life and many others, many more quotes will impact the lives of everyone. Whether it be good or bad, it is up to us to decide what we accept to influence us. As we as seniors, move onto the next steps in our lives, it is important that we all have at least one great quote, which will stay with us
In our day and age as we know it, there have been astounding advancements in medicine. The average life expectancy has risen. People are being educated in issues that surround a healthy life style. As a society, we are trying to increase our life span and defeat death. While people are following strict
When discussing religion, many people have different perspectives about religion beliefs and how to approach it. Religion is grouped in different sections such as, religion and spirituality, religion and philosophy, and religion and politics. Religion has many different views from different cultures because everyone approaches it differently with different beliefs also. To make something religion, is to have some type of belief in God, but everyone’s belief is different depending on the culture someone is located in. In society back then and today, religion has no set essence of a definition because of the different aspects people group religion in. This paper will explain the different aspects of what people believe constitutes different types of religion.
It is important to be good because the consequences of being good outweigh the consequences of being bad. Being good or bad reflects on how people view us and the opinions they will place on people. It is important because you will not feel guilty and shameful on the actions taken that make you feel that way. If you follow the norms of everyday society, you are considered being good and people will not take action against you. People have a sense of duty to do for others whenever people are in need of help. If a person does something socially unacceptable to today’s norm and standards, people will take action that will prevent that person from completing whatever it is they are doing. Some people believe in a religion that is all about being good and encourages good acts and behavior. For example, Catholics follow the Ten Commandments such as, “do not steal”, and “do not kill”.
