Tim is right, the wise ignore convention and your quote reminded me of a similar saying that the good and the wise lead quiet lives. I try to lead a quiet life.
Thanks. Yes, they get on with things. They know what the convention is, but choose to work solo. The wise are less closed off, they understand their lives and are therefore more likely to be open to what happens to them.
The good and wise don't need to be in the limelight, in many circumstances they actively choose to lead quiet lives. They get on with things.
If a man is peaceful and loving he is usually considered weak, men know this well enough.
But a wise man knows the power of being gentle and peaceful, he doesn't care about the rules society has placed on him.
Thanks Tim. If what we're going through with the pandemic shows us one thing, it's that we must all want to change, to come together.
Our lessons as we work through the pandemic are being ignored and the wrong decisions by governments are being implemented.
Yes, the wise, know the power of being gentle and peaceful, it's the spiritual way. We must all find our way back before it's too late.
