Just A Thought

Not to offend anyone, but to make us think... a while.

Abraham Lincoln once says;

"NEARLY ALL MEN CAN STAND ADVERSITY, BUT,
IF YOU WANT TO TEST A MAN'S CHARACTER,
GIVE HIM POWER."



The Meaning...


All man can handle hardship (at least to an extent). That's a part of life. Adversity is life's test for strength, durability, true willingness to live.

And, well...how power is HANDLED is test of character. A good man will not abuse power but will use it for the common good, for those his actions affect. A man with bad character will abuse power and use it solely for his own self-interest, will not be patient or understanding in his pursuits.

Though a man may be able to withstand many hardships due to strength, it doesn't mean that he is good or fair to others in his rule.


Fikir-fikirkan...dan selamat maju jaya!
