Son,
Go meekly around the noise and hate that may surround you, and remember what peace there is in silence and prayer.
As far as possible, without comprising self, be on good terms with all people, they too are a child of God.
Speaking your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant, for they too have their own story.
Avoid loud and aggressive people; they are vexatious to the Spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter, for always there are greater and lesser people than thyself, you should only compare yourself to the Heavenly Father.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your failures, keep interested in your own career choices, however humble; it is a real possession in the service of the Creator.
Exercises caution in business affairs for the world is full of trickery; but let this not blind you, but send you into prayer; many people strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism you only need to look for it and recognize it when you see it.
Be yourself; especially do not pretend affection, neither be cynical about love; for in the face of disenchantment. it is as green as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years respecting your elders for they have experience more life than you.
Nurturing strength in your spirit will shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not allow yourself imaginings, taking every thought captive; for many fears are born from fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond wholesome discipline be gentle with yourself for you are a child of the King; no less then the any other of God’s creation therefore be at peace with God in the noisy confusion of your life.
Keep peace with your soul even in broken dreams, for it is still a beautiful world, so strive to be happy and cheerful being all you were meant to be.
