26
You'll never guess who stopped by while I was editing post 374, today! I had a visit from Socrates. And as his insight is always remarkable, and worth passing forward, I wonder if you'd consider reviewing that post in order to see what the sage came to say ...
Whereas some say God speaks directly through them, I choose to quote sages, whose words have been recorded for posterity. In this way, I feel confident that the written word of wisdom will not have been altered by which ever historian is manipulating the pen.
Having come to Know Myself as imperfectly human, rather than omnipotent, I consciously work to enhance the acquired trait of humility whereby my judgement calls are replaced with wait-and-see attitudes, which offer me time to ask tons of questions. In this way, I come to see the elephant as a whole instead of misperceiving the end of the 'tale' as all there is to know. And as my mind remains open to absorbing the whole story, detail by detail, my tunnel vision expands, and in the end, here are my 'just' desserts—I get to eat less crow.
