No other words ring more true. Maybe Mr. Hubbard meant it in a religious way, however, I think it applies to life in general. Our conscience, our guiding light, is usually our hardest judge. As humans, we have a capacity to be compassionate, and care for more than ourselves. This stops us from killing each other over simple territories, and eating other humans to survive. Charity and forgiveness of ourselves and one another is so important, because if we cannot forgive and show kindness, then we are lost as a society. As a large, global community, we would be so consumed with negativity, that nothing would ever get done and productivity would come to a halt, essentially, destruction by our own means, and thus, punishing ourselves by our own sins, and misgivings. Who are we to decide other's fate? Why is it so important to live large? What's wrong with living comfortably? There will come
a day, when we look back, and wonder about what we really accomplished. What's your legacy?
