Truth

"There’s a Chinese proverb that says “Wisdom is avoiding all thoughts that weaken you & embracing those that strengthen you” Your mind is like a Ferrari (Or your favorite car) it is Awesome!...but if you put sand on the gas tank it won’t run.

But the truth of a sea in all it’s immensity cannot be embodied in one tidewashed pebble."
