Character thoughts.

Sometimes I think about character.

Character can be described as:-

1)      Moral or ethical strength,

2)      A description of a person's attributes, traits, and abilities.

3)      Personal integrity       

or even

4)      Doing what’s right even if we knew we would never be caught.

Have you ever thought what things you would do if you knew you could never be caught?

Does the pressure of life ask questions of your strength to always do the right thing?

Pressure doesn’t always develop character – but it does always reveal it!

 A friend of mine used to say “locks are made to keep honest people honest”

So I ask myself - Do I need laws to keep me on the straight and narrow?  Do I judge others by the standards I keep myself or by the standards I profess to keep, and how much of a gap is there between the two? 

Just something to ponder.

Some people, like modern shops, hang everything in their windows and when one goes inside nothing is to be found —Berthold Auerbach

Character is like a tree, and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing —Abraham Lincoln
