A DAY OR RECKONING


Dr. Ben Carson, who is a Professor of Neurosurgery, the first doctor to separate siemese twins joined at the back of their head shared this story in his Book titled, “THINK BIG”

One of my classmate ate pre-med at Yale graduated "magna cum laude" -  no small attainment at any Ivy-league school.

However, I saw one basic character flaw in the man. He wasn’t honest. The fellow flagnantly disregarded rules and regulations that as a student he had promised to observe.

Frequently, he broke curfew regulations and often had women in his room overnight at a time when such was not permitted.

Many of our examinations were the closed-book type examinations based on the honour code. The professor gave out the examination and often left the room. During the exam, I often saw this classmate opening his book, and many other students.

Yet, he did not seem to worry that anyone of importance would notice. The day of reckoning came, of all the pre-med students I knew at Yale, he was the only one not accepted into any medical school.

It is a strange behavior pattern how people deceive themselves, thinking that no one will unmask their dishonesty,  that they can hide in the crowd.

So when next you want to act dishonestly, remember that a day of reckoning is coming.
