Title: Sincerity

"I CAN GIVE MY LIFE FOR A SINCERE SOUL"

 I can give my life for a sincere soul, but insincere souls I stay away from. I am never insincere with anyone, and that is the way we all should live in this world. We must be fearless, sincere, surrounded not only with those whom we can inspire, but with those who can inspire us as well. When we are strong, then we can help those who are evil. But don't try to help them until you yourself are stronger. Otherwise their company may weaken you instead. So many who try to reform others become infected with their evil.
...
 Be strong in your own goodness, and try to be helpful to others. The man who truly looks out for himself and his own family won't find much happiness. If he doesn't think of any one else who might be suffering, he denies himself the joy of helping another, so his own cup of satisfaction will remain small. Money means to me just one thing : that I can use it to do good and help others.
