Find your tribe.
The right people for your soul: hear you differently, show up differently,
support you differently,
and nourish you differently.
That's how you'll know.

Greed is the disordered desire for more than is appropriate, decent, or deserved, not for the greater good but for one’s own interest, and often at the detriment of others and society at large. Greed can be for anything, but is most commonly for food, money, possessions, power, fame and status.

A society of greed, selfcentered people, selfish, individualistic, without family values nor spirituality. Me, me!

Value education is the way to inculcate moral values, ethics, and socially accepted behavior in children. By this, children learn right from wrong, sympathy, responsibility, respect, and integrity, through personal development and the adoption of these values in their day-to-day lives.

When someone loves you, they don't have to say it. You can tell it by the way they treat you.

Some people won't love you no matter what you do. Others won't stop loving you no matter what you do. Go where the love is.

In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. The country applies the „Housing First“ concept. Homeless receive a small apartment and counselling. 4 out of 5 ppl make their way back into a stable life. All this is cheaper than accepting homelessness.

Millions of people have decided not to be sensitive. They have grown thick skins around themselves just to avoid being hurt by anybody. But it is at great cost. Nobody can hurt them, but nobody can make them happy either.

Empathy is a superpower because it enables a profound connection with others, fostering stronger relationships, more effective leadership, and collaborative environments where trust, psychological safety, and innovation thrive.
This skill allows us to understand the feelings of others.

There will be many troubles, because people will love themselves, love money, brag, and be proud. They will say evil things against others and will not obey their parents or be thankful or be the kind of people God wants.
