Remember The Golden Rule
Synopsis
Do unto others as you would have it done to you. A very simple yet at the same time a terribly complex statement to adhere to. Most people never stop and think of their actions and how other people on the receiving end feel. In this fast pace world few take the trouble to analyze the repercussions of their works, actions, and thoughts.
Be Kind
In treating others the way one would want to be treated, makes the individual stop and take stock of the words, actions, and mannerism used when interacting with others.
This can be achieved when people slow down and are more spiritually connected with their surroundings. Some would say knowledge and imagination are a prerequisite as there would be the need to imagine being on the receiving end instead of only on the giving out end.
Being able to completely accept the same treatment meted out to others would ensure the individual is more careful and aware of how to conduct his or her everyday life. This will certainly help in shaping the moral thinking of each individual.
Strangely though, the golden rule principle does not really have any particular moral formula. As it is neither right not wrong but is based on the simple theory that “you get what you give” the golden rule phenomenon is actually tapping on the individual desire to receive only good while being fairly sure that extending good is the prerequisite. This rule borders on the fact that most human have the in built self preservation instinct.
Practiced all over the world and in all walks of society, the golden rule principle is adhered to, in order to preserves feelings and relationships better that any other physical or mental practice can do, simply by its non complicated one rule.
