MANifesto Revisited

Last year I posted my personal MANifesto. Ever since then, I have kept a framed copy of these words hanging on my wall at work to remind me of who I want to be. Throughout the year, I will be discussing each one of these points in a more focused, more intimate light.

To be a man whose self-interest falls to the wayside in considering the needs of others, and to ultimately be drawn into a wholly sacrificial love toward my fellow man.

To be a man who understands grace and mercy enough to face my most regretful moments and not fall into devastation.

To be a man whose humility speaks louder than his ability.

To be a man whose words portray reality and thoughtful wisdom.

To be a man fully fixated upon life’s intangible assets, un-distracted by the decaying hubris.

To be self-controlled yet passionate.

To be patient yet timely.

To be kind yet firm.

To be joyful yet understanding the pains of this world’s sufferings.

To be committed to living today to its zenith.
