Lead with integrity

Letters

SOMEDAY there will be leader who rules with integrity, and national leaders who govern with justice.
Each of them will be like a shelter from the wind and a place to hide from storms.
They will be like streams flowing in a desert, like the shadow of a giant rock in a barren land.
Their eyes and ears will be open to the needs of the poor people.
They will not be impatient any longer but they will act with understanding and will say what they mean.
No one will think that a fool is honourable or say that a scoundrel is honest.
A fool speaks foolishly and thinks up evil things to do.
What he does and what he says are an insult to our mother nature and the creator, and he never feeds evil things, he plots to ruin the poor people with lies and to prevent them getting their rights.
But an honourable leader acts honestly and stands firm for what is right.
