Knowledge
Don’t live life surreptitiously, be knowledgeable of the weather, the seasons and the temperatures. The same goes for the hurdles we are confronted with in life. Be prepared, for knowledge is power.

Ser bom, não significa ser bobo. Significa que, mesmo diante da astúcia de muitos, você não guarda lixo emocional. Claro, tem memória fresca, mas não guarda lixo. Assim como também, não se vinga. Mas usa o senso ético para agir naturalmente como faz com qualquer pessoa. Você pode comer, beber, sentar-se numa mesa e conversar com o seu pior inimigo de forma diplomática.
Profundo? Não. É uma fase da vida que poucos têm maturidade para alcançar esse estágio. A verdade é que, não precisamos concordar perfeitamente com o desejo de todos, gostos e gestos. Nem travar luta, ou criar brigas desnecessárias. Precisamos sim, fazer rupturas, quando de fato, elas são necessárias. Mas não se esqueça que, o nosso maior compromisso ( o que devemos ficar mesmo) é a nossa felicidade. O resto é perda de tempo.

The Climber
When the dark aura of a cold and misty night gasped its last breath before surrendering to the faint illuminations of the awakening sun, a tall and dark figure walked through the nodding wheat fields to reach a solitary palm gently swaying in the chilly breeze of an early winter morn. Barring only a white loin cloth and a traditional thin cotton towel wrapped around his head, he wore nothing else to fend against the elements. His lithe and leathery body did not seem to mind. After offering a silent prayer to the Monkey God, he ascended the living monolith.
Using two harnesses of jute ropes, one around his waist and the other around his ankles, he slithered upwards like a squirrel on a sprinting spree. Reaching the canopy, he leaned backwards, locking himself in mid-air. Then he unfastened five round earthen pots from around his waist and tied them…
