Well this has to be my favorite rule, as you might be able to tell, the wizards eighth rule and the namesake of this blog.
"Talga Vassternich. Deserve Victory."
From Naked Empire by Terry Goodkind
short, simple, and to the point. I give everything my all and it really irks me when i see someone cheating their way through or having someone else carry them to their goal. When so few people actually try anymore whats going to happen when everyone finally does stop trying and there is no one to cheat off of anymore? yay for the destruction of the human race. anyway those people who do still work hard will eventually get their rewards...hopefully
That's what my mom believes. My mom thinks that people should work for themselves, and giving/receiving help on the way is cool, but you can't go on someone else's back. very nicely put into words.
ReplyDeleteI love this rule and at the same time despise it...I enforce it, but occasionally it comes to bite me in the ***.
ReplyDeleteObviously I don't live my life because of someone else, but I live my life and accept help from others. It bites me when I turn into the person who is the only reason that someone's living.
