Whispers of Wisdom

A Symphony of Thought

Strong minds engage in intellectual discourse, discussing ideas that make thoughts traverse. While others dwell on events of the day, their minds consumed, their intellects astray.

Weak minds, alas, indulge in idle chatter, Talking of people, their lives and what's the matter. But silence, oh silence, a treasure so rare, let your words be worth more, beyond compare.

With two ears and one mouth, a wise decree, we should listen more than we speak, truly see. To conquer the world, conquer yourself first, master your inner battles, quench the thirst.

Guard your sensibilities, shield from life's sting, Minimize the hurt, let it not take wing. Eat to live, don't live just to devour, Nourish the body, let it gain power.

Marriage, a gamble, with outcomes unknown, A good wife brings happiness, seeds sown. But a bad one may turn you into a sage, Philosophizing life, trapped in a cage.

Smart people learn from every soul they meet, Gleaning wisdom, their knowledge complete. Average folks learn from their own life's strain, While the foolish think they hold the world's reins.

Blame others, blame yourself, or blame none, Wise minds perceive blame as foolishness undone. Act with fairness, follow your moral light, Injustice shall fade, justice take flight.

Imagined anxieties plague the mind, Real problems overshadowed, hard to find. Nature and fate blamed, but truth be told, our character shapes fate, as stories unfold.

Desire not what you lack, cherish what's yours, Grasp the present, past dreams now in stores. Circumstances don't define who we become, they reveal our essence, life's symphony strum.

Yes and no, words concise and so grand, require deep thought, in wisdom they stand. Passions enslave, freedom they deny, to be truly free, let reason soar high.

Encourage progress, be it slow or fast, in yourself and others, let growth be amassed. Use time to improve, through others' insight, their toil and writings, make darkness bright.

Reality, a creation of our own mind, by changing thoughts, a new reality we find. True happiness lies in release of control, Let go of worries beyond our self-pole.

Choose company wisely, for we emulate, Adopting their values, a common fate. Their habits and interests, they become ours, Interpret events through their colored powers.

False words, like poison, infect the soul, corrupting virtue, leaving us unwholly. Seek contentment in deeds done with grace, let others gossip, in silence find solace.

Kneeling to help a child, a mark of might, A moment of greatness, in humble light. The richest are those content with the least, Finding joy in simplicity, inner peace.

Intent, the wealth bestowed by nature's hand, with purpose and drive, we rise and expand. Two kinds of people, wise and the deceived, the wise know their folly, the fools believe.

To think and ponder, let wisdom unfold, Knowledge grows not from what's already told. Take interest in governance, be aware, or else fools will rule, and ignorance ensnare.

Speak when you have something worthy to say, Silence the fool who prattles away. Overcoming desires, a measure of might, to conquer oneself, the hardest fight.

In old age, regrets of laziness sting, the idleness that robs us, a bitter thing. To please the masses, never my intent, Unseen by their eyes, wisdom I was sent.

It's not what befalls, but how we respond, that shapes our character, our hearts beyond

Idol gossip and Petty conflicts choosing instead to cultivate understanding and Foster Harmony those who aim at Great Deeds must also suffer greatly it is not so much our friends help that helps us.

as the confidence of their help a bad feeling is a commotion of the Mind repugnant to reason

and against nature once made equal to man woman becomes his Superior our sins are more easily remembered than our Good Deeds the wrongdoer is more unfortunate than the man wronged foreign
