The great majority of us are required to live a life of constant duplicity. Your health is bound to be affected if, day after day, you say the opposite of what you feel, if you grovel before what you dislike, and rejoice at what brings you nothing but misfortune. ~Boris Pasternak
Don't rejoice others wrong doing because that will make you look stupid. Be a leader instead of a follower and if you are going to be a leader be a good leader and lead in the right direction.
ReplyDeleteliving in duplicity is a perfect reflection of confusion. we are lost if we can't decide which to chase. we must be ourselves, to find to ourselves...then can we find a lasting satisfaction in originality and service.
ReplyDeletethis is sayin...your health is very important & words are powerful...also you shouldnt speck the opposite of what your tryin to do or feel...so if u feel sick you should say "Im not sick" instead of sayin "Im sick"

I believe this quote is saying to be ourselves.
ReplyDeleteDon't speak the opposite of what you feel or think because it appeases someone else.
I think this means that we live a life of repitition, and as life goes on some of us might do the opposite of what we say or we may want to do something and forget what we want because we might have a lot to do. Also not to do things that will bring negativity in your life.
ReplyDeleteThis quote means to me that if you say something and you don't mean it then you will or can regret it. Don't say the opposite of what you feel, say what you actually feel. For example: the saying goes: say what you mean and mean what you say. If you going to say you going to do something, you need to actually do it and don't let anything or anyone distract you from doing that!

This quote means that you should speak your mind and tell others what you feel so they can help you help yourself, so don't say the opposite of what your feeling. Also, decide the path you want to go down and stay with that choice and don't let others try to be you.

People should always be their selves. If someone is uncomfortable with something its ok to tell how they feel because that what makes that person who they are. Many people feel they need to change who they are just to impress someone but they don’t. Changing who you are and bottling up how you feel is only going to hurt that person and can possibly hurt the people around you. So be yourself no matter what and always express yourself when you feel something isn’t right.

We can't go through life being doubleminded. We have to have the inner strength to be confident in ourselves. You will live miserably if you don't show who you truly are and how you perceive things in life. Being yourself will surround you with people who love you for you. These types of people will respect and/or share your morals. When you are comfortable with yourself, that inner joy will show.

This one was tricky but I think this is saying if you don't follow your heart and answer to the things that make you most happy you'll be forced to answer to the things that make you most unhappy but on the other hand the bible tells us we are kill our flesh daily meaning we aren't to answer the things that makes us comfortable. It also says if we diligently seek him it's nothing we'll require from him. I'm not saying not to follow your heart but I'm saying follow your heart as long as it's the right things your pushing towards
ReplyDeleteThis quote means that you need to be yourself. If you do things or commit to actions, day by day, that brings you only trouble and sadness, than you will have a miserable life. Your health, the way you look, and your mental health will decline terribly. Don't condone wrong doings or even do things that you think other people would want you to do. Spend your life in happiness and help others get there as well.
ReplyDeleteThis quote is reminding us of what is required of us. We all are, and have always been, rquired to live a holy and seperate life from this present world. We must walk upright and stay on the straight and narrow path. The path of righteousness. We must think positive, of ourselves and also also of others. We, as Christians, must do things differently than those of our members. We follow Christ no matter what. !

ReplyDeleteThis is saying that you shouldn't rejoice on others wrong. A lot of us think that we have to live our lives the same as our friends or follow behind what they do. But you should just be yourself because that is the best thing to do.

The meaning of this interpretation to me that when something of greatness is establish in your family, they expect you to continue the line of greatness. Also in doing this, you do so much to continue the the line of greatness that nobody understand or feel what you might be going through to make everbody proud of you and not be dissaointed in you. Meaning people shouldn't go out of control when you want somebody to do good. I suggest that you encourage them first and find out what their interest is first then start from there. So in conclusion have high hopes for the people you love and respect, and never pressure them to do things that they might not want to do.

..This is saying that you should live your life the way you want to live it. If you continually do or say what you don't really mean you are not doing your life any good; basically your living your life in a shadow where you will never be noticed until the bad comes around..

Living in duplicity will only make you confused on life. You will only be stuck trying to find who you really are. Focus on being yourself and making your own decisions because in the end it doesn't matter what everyone else thinks about you, as long as you're happy.
ReplyDelete*DiamondAcoff;Period3*
What this is saying...Basically don't be happy or rejoice on people doing things wrong or not right.Try to be yourself no matter what the circumstance is. Doesn't matter on what other people think of you either just be yourself and live life to the fullest.!!
ReplyDeleteThis quote is basically saying do what you want to do no matter what you think the consequences may be. Do what you feel and do what makes you happy. Everyone isnt going to agree with what you do but the only thing that matters is that you're happy in the end.

This qoute is saying that you don't have to change your image just to impress someone like a guy or something. if a guy really likes you he wouldn't want you to change because he likes you for he you are.

as long as you speak negative; you will always have the mindset of negativity; && never have a positive outlook of anything !
ReplyDeleteBe positive , speak positive && spread positivity!
It means that if you are holding things in, you are just bringing yourself down with depression and hatred. So if you stay positive and don't worry about people say you can just stay your normal self.
