Start Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

Start now. Start now.

When will there be a better time? If you are waiting for the best conditions to start you never will because you clearly do not recognize the best ones when they are right in front of your face. Capitalizing on the time you have will ensure that you will capitalize on time in the future.

This time will never come back. You can’t save it up to withdraw from the bank. It is passing through your fingers; it may not be something that you can hold onto but you can still value it by experiencing it the way it is meant to be: felt. Every parent wishes they would have cherished moments with the children more. But once it is gone all attempts in saying what you should’ve done is pointless. You either start or you forever hold your peace.

If you want to carry on the past so that the future is preserve for those of us who are entering it, you better start now. This is the best shot we have. If you want your country to be more holy, then start by leading your family in simple private worship. If you want your country to have a true education, then start by educating yourself in the Western classics. If you want your country to embrace its heritage and culture, then start by holding onto your family’s history.

These are the tools that lay before you. This task will require you to work harder than you ever have before, but you will quickly find that the tools will be light in your hands.
