Do not criticise

Letters

THE tide comes in and then recedes; the sun rises giving light, and then sets, bringing darkness.
Droughts plague the gardens, followed by abundant rains.
We sweat from the intense heat of the sun and soon, we clothe ourselves against the penetrating cold.
The smile gives way to tears, as does the joy to the sorrow and the jubilation over tragedy.
Close friends become hated enemies.
The guns and bloodshed of war are followed by the stillness of peace.
Confidence is replaced with by doubt; patience is replaced with stress; expectancy by boredom; and, achievement by disillusionment.
As the wheel of life continues its constant turn, all human emotions appear, disappear and reappear.
Generations that uphold high moral standards continue to fade away as development increases.
One day you may stand in front of the pulpit preaching and the next day you may be in the club drinking.
At that moment, someone may be gossiping about you without knowing that one day it may be them.
So it is wise that we should not criticise others.
We should take each day to control our feelings and attitudes which are the only constant factors in life.
In doing so, we may prosper in our endeavours.
