Do you have a dream? What are you doing here on earth? What is your mission? Do you know where you are going? Do you know how you are going to get there?

If you have an inner moonlight, you must not hide it. You must nurture it. You must live it. You must follow it. You must work it. As Allen Ginsberg once said, “Follow your inner moonlight; don’t hide the madness.” If you want to pass your examination, you must follow your inner moonlight. You must do your own thing. Do not allow anything to stop you from following your inner moonlight. Yes, sometimes it is hard to do, but if you have the courage to follow it, you will accomplish your dreams.

“A purposeless life is a meaningless life. And a meaningless life is a fruitless life. And a fruitless life is a hopeless life.”

Remember, your dream is not going to happen by accident. If you want it to happen, you must do your part. You must take action. You must listen to yourself. You must not allow people to talk you out of your dream. It is your dream. To keep it, you must protect it from negative thoughts. Do not let negative thoughts stand in your way. Do not ignore yourself. You have what it takes to succeed in your life. You have what it takes to live a better life. But you have got to listen to your inner moonlight. You have got to listen to your inner self. Do not listen to other people who are trying to talk you out of your life.

Don’t listen to them. Do not listen to negative people. If you want to make your dream happen, you must follow the dream in your heart. It is there for a purpose. And you must follow that purpose to the gate of heaven. You must nurture it. You must not hide your purpose. Because a purposeless life is a meaningless life. And a meaningless life is a fruitless life. And a fruitless life is a hopeless life. Do not be scared. You can always change your life. The choice is yours.

Pride is a weak person. He wants you to be like him. He loves himself more than anybody. He is just living. He is so weak and poor. Pride is purposeless. He doesn’t care about anything, but himself. He talks a lot about himself. He lives in his own world. He does not feel what you feel.

Pride always looks down on people. He does not see anything above his head.

Pride goes to his work without love. Because he does not have love. He can’t love you. The only person he can love is himself. When you come in contact with Pride, do not expect love from him. If you do, you are going to be disappointed.

Pride wants to live his life, but he does not know how to work. He expects something from nothing. He does not know what he wants. Pride wants to be successful, but he is lazy. He doesn’t want to be humble. Pride lacks humility. His next door neighbor is not humility. Pride cannot live with humility. He can only live with himself.

He knows everything. He doesn’t want to learn from anybody. Pride is his own mentor. That is why he can’t get anything done.

Pride doesn’t listen to anyone, but himself. Listen, he is a hard, difficult guy to deal with. If you don’t know who you are, what you want, and where you are going, you will find it very difficult to deal with Pride.

When you are dealing with Pride, you have got to be strong. If not, he is going to make you uncomfortable. He knows how to do that.

To deal with Pride is to be vulnerable. When you are dealing with Pride, you must be specific with what you want from him. If you can do that, you will be his friend. Do you want to be his friend? It is up to you.
