HAVING A GOOD REPUTATION IS A VIRTUE AND BUILDING SUCH A GOOD REPUTATION IS MY GOAL

 While growing up as a child, I have met some people who have done so many good things to people and community entirely. I have also seen so people who have done bàd things to other people and have brought shamé and disgracé to their family or relative, and to the entire community as well.  As a child I have said to myself countless times when I grow up and become successful in life, or finds myself in any good position or have seen myself in any authority position, I will help people and develop my community. I will build a good legacy to have and build name and reputation for myself because of my good works and good deeps I will do to anyone that comes my way and to the community entirely.  My goal and aims to build a good name for myself and have a good reputation and an amazing legacy for the next generation to be told about my good works and learn from it. I came to understand that whatever you do, that thing will speak for you, either good or bad. And history will keep records of everything one does while alive.  A reputation is an outcome of your character or behavior, your words you have spoken or your works you render to people. People sees those good or bad things you do to them, and they keeps records of everything in their minds and hearts. When you render good works to people and community, they build their trust in you, they will believed in you, and they will respect you for the good works you've been doing for them and for the growth of the community regardless of your age. And when people and entire community put their hopes and trusts in you, that's a good virtue.  The same way if all you do is to create problems, caused confusion and brings destruction to people's lives and family and communities, they will see you as a bad influence and they will not trust and support you in anything you're doing. They will render your attitude and attributes as bad reputation because you brought nothing good except chaos and disasters to people's lives and community at large. And I don't want to be the reason why people cry and suffer because of my deeps, rather I want to reason people smile and have good reason to live again.  When people and community trust and believes in you because of your good works, then you have gain their support and contributions. Your good works is a proof of your integrity and stable moral principles. And when people can confide on you for being honest and trustworthy, they will be drawn to you and be submitted to your orders and directions.  Whatever you tells them to do they will certainly do it because they know whatever you will do is for the people and community interest at heart and for the development of the community. Having a good reputation or good name worth fighting for and that's what am fighting to ascentain in my life. I want to live a good life that will become a standard for other people to see and emulate from my character.  I want to have a good reputations that will set the minds of anyone that comes across me positivity and rightly. Anyone with good intentions and good reputations lives a free life, there's nothing bad to hide from people. Good reputation is not all about how people sees you, someone can pretend to be good outside but inside is something entirely different.  I want to live a good life that people can trust me and know me for who am I and for what I do, without precedence and without pride. When people believes you and trust you, they can even defend you in your absence when other people are talking bad against you. I want be a person that people becomes more open to someone they trust and believes and can confide on.  One might not have everything exactly what he wants, but having people and community that trust and believes in him, is indeed a virtue of a good reputations.
