THE IMPORTANCE OF DEPENDENCE
In life, being able to 'do what we mean and mean what we do', is an essential component of our ethical group set, – the self-defining moral principles from whence we base our notions of right conduct
Punctuality and acknowledgement of it's power to conform, lays the foundation for our core principles – because it serves so well as a marker for self-managed integrity. However, being on time, shouldn't be the sole focus in our 'do-right' rule book.
A Reason For Doing Right
Being in a set place and at a predetermined time when we say we will be there – all activated through thought processes with the rationale to take the appropriate action – sits shallowly within the many complex layers forming our 'higher' active/reactive thought processes. Just as a simple alarm clock merely ticks, the process of setting a time to adhere to, is simply the basic action leading up to the formative moment.
Residing deeper within our core, is the superior intelligence and defining characteristics for making us dependable beings. At the heart of this place, we have courage and honour sitting side by side and interweaving the concept of what actually defines being reliable. It's not just the fact of being punctual, but the reasons for doing the right thing, that are of key importance. For, if one can be depended upon to turn up, even if, unexpectedly, against the odds or at times most forgivably, off schedule or running late – then, we have a 'golden' measure of character.
As clunky, quirky, off-kilter and unconventional beings go, the person who never lets you down – albeit maybe not always around as scheduled, but there when most needed – these are the people to be counted on one hand as your friends. And if we are really lucky, these are the life's co-pilots we all seek and should aim for being ourselves.
