IT'S OK TO CRY
When all that's around you
Seems awkward with trouble
When people surround you
And make your work double
When all you can think of
Is why do they pry
When words seem to fail you
It's ok to sigh
When all that surrounds you
Is hopeless and sad
When some people harm you
They treat you so bad
When they leave you so lonely
And tell you a lie
When no thought seems to comfort
It's ok to cry
When tears sting the lonely
And your empty heart aches
When your question you ask
Is why my heart breaks
When friends reach a hand to you
Once more you ask why
When you sit there and wonder
It's ok to cry
When you ask yourself why again
Your heart full of fear
When all around hurts so
Just too much to bear
When you need help understanding
You know you must try
When nothing else helps you
IT'S OK TO CRY
JOURNEY OF MY SOUL
It is very good to have a name
I know what you want is fame
Imagine suffering to attain your aim
Why don’t you kill yourself to end this pain
Rivers stretch, streams flow whiles the sea rolls
Buildings collapse, waters dry up whiles human die
Virginity is lost, honor goes whiles beauty fades
Talents determines, ability decides whiles assurance questions
When a song end, music still goes on
When a cloud gather, rain falls
When a night falls, a day rises.
When a covenant is broken, mistrust and hatred begins…

VALUES, MORALS AND ETHICS
Values
Values are the rules by which we make decisions about right and wrong, should
and shouldn't, good and bad. They also tell us which are more or less important,
which is useful when we have to trade off meeting one value over another.
Morals
Morals have a greater social element to values and tend to have a very broad
acceptance. Morals are far more about good and bad than other values. We thus
judge others more strongly on morals than values. A person can be described as
immoral, yet there is no word for them not following values.
Ethics
You can have professional ethics, but you seldom hear about professional
morals. Ethics tend to be codified into a formal system or set of rules which are
explicitly adopted by a group of people. Thus you have medical ethics. Ethics
are thus internally defined and adopted, whilst morals tend to be externally
imposed on other people.
If you accuse someone of being unethical, it is equivalent of calling them
unprofessional and may well be taken as a significant insult and perceived more
personally than if you called them immoral (which of course they may also not
like).
In a nut shell,knowing between good and bad and being committed to do the right thing always...should be your number one priority.
In order to be sure whether you are doing the right thing, ask yourself: 'how will those around me react when they see or hear me doing this' ?;;
Based on the question, you then decide....
but remember, It is the choices you make today that enslaves your soul tomorrow...
One love...
