There is God accepted rule and law, by
choice, we are going through a path either
success or failure. Both require celebration,
getting drunk on a good path make us certain
about our future. Be righteous. Conserve your
time efficiently; make yourself do what should
be done. Remember that experiences which are
not reflected are easily forgotten.

wrong path attracts temptation to create a
sin. Those are referred to as forbidden rule.

fall, be broken—worst? Die in agony and
regrets. But rejoice True-Believers! For the
Lord who will open his door and will offer his
life for Man’s forgiveness.
