"A wise man's heart is at his right hand but a fool's heart at his left".-King Solomon

Hi dear hivers,today I've decided to write on a subject that spans across every across every sphere of life and to every category of people.It's a deep truth I learnt some days back.

Based on the quote above,What's your heart? In other words, what do you really treasure?

As you journey through life,you'll find many people with different things that matter so much to them-their values.To some,it's money,fame,popularity and power;while to others,its family,human empowerments and upliftment,etc

The value of a man really defines that man.I believe this has been one of the critical factors that has defined our society and made it look like what it is today.

Irrespective of what it is,everyone has a heart-a treasure,value or esteem.

But the main question of our focus today is where is that heart? At the RIGHT or LEFT?

The right hand symbolizes strength and priority.To hold something at the right hand is to hold it in high esteem-It is to guard it jealously like one's life depends on it.

This has been the secret behind men like Abraham Lincoln and Nelson Mandela.They carried their values,their life's philosophies-their hearts-with every bit of strength they've got.They gladly sacrificed evrything they had to protect these values-Indeed,they had their heart on their right hand.I believe this was the reason they eventually turned out to become great forces to be reckoned with in history.

On the other hand, the left hand symbolises weakness and levity.Don't get it wrong,being ambidextrous is great and being left-handed is no small beauty.Here "left hand" is only used for symbolic purpose.

so,to hold something with the left hand-figuratively speaking-is to hold it with levity,like it doesn't matter.
Some have their hearts-their treasues,their life's values and philosophy on their left hands-This is very risky.

so,finally...who is wise?...and who is unwise?...very simple! A wise man has his heart on the right and an unwise man on his left.Period.I think you get it.😄
so thanks👍 for reading thus far.
