What is Life Without Principles?

I really can’t imagine how anyone can blindly wade through life without a set of principles to lean on. This is the foundation of all virtues. Life is tough as it is and without a set of guiding principles, firmly in place, no moral or social grace can come into existence or be sustained. Yet, there is never a room for principles where there is no self-discipline.

Unprincipled people may as well be walking about with blindfolds, falling into pits here and potholes there. If they are fortunate, they may survive life without grievous physical and emotional scars.

It’s however a different kettle of fish for every individual that imbibes strong, positive principles. While life may not always be kind to them, neither will it ever destroy them. If anything, every encounter with a negative fate will only provide an avenue for the acquisition of more wisdom for the principled.
