Hmm, let’s me first start by saying there is no saint on earth. I meant in one way of the other we have all wronged, be it in term of abuse, envy or covetousness and many “sin” we have committed. At times, we favour people that are good to us and decide not to do so to those that are not. This life is just too complicated to say, oh, all what I have done in life qualify me to make heaven if it does exist. Unless you don’t live in this world that you would say you never wronged anybody or you are sure 100 percent that heaven is sure for you. To me, I can’t say I’m quality and I just believe i need to keep working toward perfection which I believe it is alone God that can be.
Why we need to be good whether there is no heaven or hell is that, if we are evil, it is not only going to affect us directly but also people that will love. Imagine selling a hard drug thinking that you aren’t taking it. How sure are you that your family member or friend won’t gets to use it? There is this adage in my locality that say, someone shouldn’t throw a stone to the market because you never can tell who got hit by it. It may be your relative and close acquaintances that got hit. That is just how life is. In all we do, we should consider that there are people that will be affected whether directly or indirectly. If we live well and give our 100 percent into humanity, then our family member, kids or relatives will also benefit from it. It is just like our forefather who planted cocoa and tree and many of their generations still benefited from it till today. Whether we do today whether good or evil will find a way of coming back to us even when we are no longer there.
True is, it is difficult to live an holy life 100 percent on this earth no matter how careful you are. At time, even in justice, wickedness is not far fetched.
