Being beautiful is good , but being good is beautiful

What exactly do you think being good means? I’m sure I can guess a few standard responses. Helping others, contributing to the society, maintaining cleanliness, not being rude, being compassionate etc etc. Well, I don’t really consider them as being attributes of a good person. These are logical things that are expected of any human being. If any of these qualities aren’t being fulfilled by you or anyone, you really urgently have to re-evaluate your approach to life.
I’m basically talking about being good within yourself. Your first relationship is with yourself. Don’t you think you need to take heed of your own self before stepping out to take heed of anyone else? No I don’t mean positivity or patience. They’re essential attributes as well for a human being to exist in this world. I intend to point to that good, which lies within you by heritage, by lineage. The good that you’re born with is the magnitude of good your life can become. The only reason we are not able to make most of us, or even identify ourselves is because we are held by shackles of the modern version of pre – specified streams of paths in life. In all these years of people trying to dictate us to make our own path, they ended up creating a completely new set of paths, simply replacing the options in the same system. But the problem with these new set of options is that they lack the holistic approach to complete knowledge. The point of taking a path is to reach a destination, not a stage in the middle of a maze. The “modern” school of thought has left everyone in a situation in which we make our way through the maze only to reach a dead end where we get a stage to project our thoughts, giving us an illusion of achievement. What we don’t realize is that we left our quest to make the way out of the maze.
So what is being “good” got to do with all this? Being good is doing yourself a service of giving a direction to your life and a purpose to your actions. Being good is to identify where you come from, using your complete potential, harness the intellect of your lineage and build up on it. Being good is to do justice to your own capabilities and harnessing the power in your brilliance and perception.
When you start working on your own goodness, you considerably improve your knowledge, perception and holistic development. This automatically projects outside of you in the way you handle people, situations, career or life in general. Communication becomes cerebral and wholesome which would make the world a much more orderly place than it is right now.
Isn’t it better to make your life beautiful by being good than make it good by being beautiful?
