"the nature of the person that you are – your thoughts, your speech, your actions, and especially your intentions have a bearing on the nature of environment around you, whether it is in the form of social surroundings, physical surroundings, or even your personal space.
similarly, the nature of the world around you will have its effects on every individual’s nature, whether they were past events that occurred beyond anybody’s control, social or peer pressure to conform, guidance and support from the people you trust, even the availability of conducive environment for the maturity and growth of your personality plays a part in forming the person that you are.
looking into the heart of a person, we hope to discover your strength of character and the charity of heart to help and assist those who are in less fortunate state than you. sometimes, it is a case of helping others achieve happiness in their lives, and in doing so, you may find that you are also helping yourself in the form of personal growth and achievements.
understand also that nature follows rules on a cosmic level, and certain events occur beyond our control. when we are faced with things that have affected us or are affecting us, we need to learn how to deal with these adverse situations in a positive manner.
the nature of the world is a reflection of the nature of every individual’s heart."
