ACTA NON VERBA - Actions not words.
What is courage without actions? What is wisdom without actions? What is kindness without actions? What is will for without actions?
There are so many words, sentences and phrases everywhere. Our world is overfilled with words, everybody has their own opinion and shares it with the world.
However, where are the actions?
What will we leave behind us? Will it be words? Or rather it will be actions and deeds? Will it be a built house, a born child, a planted tree? Or will it be a lot of excuses and given reasons why back then I could not, did not want, was not able, was not allowed, did not find the courage to do, preferred not to risk ...?
Only actions matter! Actions, starting from the most simple ones, such as feeding a child, up to building a spacecraft rocket. Our world is made up of actions. Only actions matter! Only  actions, only deeds, which we will take or not. Impulsive and long-planned actions. Everyday and extraordinary actions, fear inspiring and joyful.
Who would our ancestors be without actions? Who is our family, our nation without actions? Actions make a man and his nature. We are the result of actions, labor, deeds and decisions taken by our ancestors. Their actions bring us together with them. Actions and deeds are important!
The choice of how to act depends on us. We decide what action we will take.  We were gifted with a free will! And it is on us to make a right choice and to choose good actions and deeds. To choose the way of Abel, not Cain.
To choose today and here, courage or cowardice, good or evil.
Our actions are dower, which we will leave to our descendants, our beloved ones. They will take it from us. They will not remember our speech and words. Our actions will live in their memory.
