The most valuable asset a person can have - character.
You can recover from everything if it doesn’t ruin your character. It only ruins your life if it ruins your character.
Character is a representation of your soul. That’s the way you think and act. Do you want to carry out toxic behaviour and be evil, or do you want to make a positive difference?
If you accomplish something good with hard work, the labor passes quickly, but the good endures; if you do something shameful in pursuit of pleasure, the pleasure passes quickly, but the shame endures. – Gaius Musonius Rufus
