People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care

-A famous quote attributed to Theodore Roosevelt, John C. Maxwell, or Earl Nightingale and others.-

Regardless of whosoever said it first, may it be Theodore Roosevelt, John C. Maxwell, or Earl Nightingale, the fact of the matter and the truth behind these words will always remain.

I can’t help but think deep in my thoughts and try my best to express what my conscious mind is struggling to convey, hoping whosoever reads this might be blessed in whatever way it may imply.

DESPITE THE MONEY, EARTHLY WEALTH, FAME, POSITION, OR WHATEVER TITLE YOU MAY HAVE, YOUR RICHES CAN NEVER BUY A LIFE OF SIGNIFICANCE, HONOR, even TRUST, and NEITHER CAN YOU PAY TO HAVE RESPECT or LOVE.

Seasons and fortunes Change, Kings and their Kingdoms will rise and fall, and the knowledge that you know now may lose its significance through the changing times.

People may not even remember the good things you’ve done or accomplished, but they will never forget how you made them feel.

When the clock stops ticking and you look at all the things that you have accomplished throughout your lifetime, will you be at peace? or will you spend the rest of eternity counting all the opportunities you’ve missed to make a difference in people’s lives? Or would you regret the times you’ve worked so hard to impress and please others except for the people who should matter in your life?

Know for a fact and remember that your fleeting moments on EARTH will never outlast the LEGACY you leave behind for eternity and the memory you leave to those who would be left behind.

ASK YOURSELF:

1) What are the things you should really care about?

2) If time is money that you would use to invest in hope that it would yield good returns in time, Where should you invest it?

3) Do the things that you care about really matter? Why?
