Your early years were when the first lines of your morality and understanding of what it means to be human were etched. But as you grew, you found that there were others—sometimes even yourself—who would attempt to continue or rewrite some of those lines—sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.
And this is a part of life. Your tablet is constantly being written, and written over—if it weren’t, you’d be dead. But you must never forget the foundations—those first lines or your thesis: do what is right. Help those who cannot help themselves, show courage in the face of hardship, protect the weak, act with justice, speak the truth, practice patience, forgive others and yourself, lead by example not by force, give freely to those in need, and stand firm in virtue.
And if these were not the first lines of your tabula rasa, if you were never raised this way, know that it’s never too late to learn and write the lines yourself.
Remember this, and you will always find a home in your actions.
