Many a time I overhear about me “There goes he who listens not to anyone”. I do listen but not to everyone. I do not listen nor pretend to listen to those whose speech is flowery but who carries a dagger hidden in their robes, waiting to strike a fatal blow. I accept my shortcomings and look forward to be told about them. I expect none to praise me unnecessarily and do not wish to praise anyone unnecessarily.
The way worldly business is transacted is horrible. It is so full of frills. It is like picking grains from stones of untruth, and the grains are hard to find. It is indeed necessary to cut the frills out. We must know how to pick a few elusive relevant pearls from the huge overpowering and overwhelming sea of frills and useless things. That can only happen when you yourself are not contributing towards adding frills. Keep away from them and their contributors, for they keep you busy and your short lifetime is gone before you realize it is wasted.
