Happy Testimonial New Year, 2024. Love All: Hate None!
By Benjamin Pulle Niriwa, In Social Issues and Public Health. 01.01.2024
Being favored amongst the living into 2024 is already a testimony! This testimony is the wish of every human being on earth, no one prays for bad things in life. When you end each month successfully and peacefully, that is a testimony! January is victory of victories that marks your first testimony of the year. This might be difficult if you leave God out of the journey. If start your year with Him irrespective of whatever difficult you might face there will always be a positive solution at the end (Smith S. (., 2021; Mc Tavish, 2018). No one washes clothing to make intentionally make them dirty! But no matter how gentle or careful one might be, what has been washed will still become dirty again. This explains our weaknesses as human beings!
To end the year peacefully be prepared for only good news but also prepare to amicably deal with bad news too. Once you have already built a strong mentality to face the year with faith, you will still be able to smile should you meet any inevitable. The problems with most religions are because of human behaviors but not because those religions are inherently bad! Do not allow the behavior of another human being to destroy the relationship between you and your God. As long as you do not live in isolation; others will like you naturally whilst some would also have problems with you. How you are able to cope and balance bad manners is very important in your interactions with others. For some, you have to let go! But for others especially depending on the nature of the issue you might need to peacefully draw the attention of the doer to it.
Human beings are like water! Just as one cannot do without water one cannot live a peaceful and enjoyable life on earth without humans too. Water is used for cleaning all dirty things or areas. Everyone needs water for cooking, bathing, washing, rehydration, digestion and excretion of waste products from the body. Our various offices and homes will smell badly if there is no water to clean them. But though water is used for all these, irrespective of how pure it is if one uses different jars to fetch it and keep it in the jars for a month or more there will be scent. This is because the water initially which was pure, has been contaminated by contaminants from the environment.
The behaviors of most people are influenced by the environment in they find themselves. Even twins have their differences! This is particularly high when they grow up in different environments. Understanding this would help you to appreciate others’ opinions or understand why they might behave differently from you.
Life is like the health sector or playing football! For quality health care delivery, many health professionals need to synergize their various professional skills in taking care of a patient. If any of them fails to do the right thing and that is not also detected, the patient will suffer. They must all behave professionally before they can provide quality health care delivery to the patient. In the game of football professionalism is applied too. No one is a winner if no plays the ball! That is exactly how life is! No one will be able to survive if no one is ready to work too. What can help us succeed at the end as human beings is when we put away the garment of envy and jealousy; then put on the garment of common good. Think of others in whatever you do!
I wish everyone a Happy Prosperous New Year full of beautiful testimonies! Thank you for Reading!
