RE: Principle of the Day

in #life5 months ago

If we could only choose 1, I would say I prefer to understand over being understood.

Having rounded the sun so many times, I care less and less what the masses think of me and whether they understand me. That being said, I still care, but only in the context of people who look closer at my intentions and approach me to understand.

I will get the gratification of knowing, even when other people do not know I know, for the gift of wisdom. That is hopefully out weighing my ego as I progress in this life.

I choose to understand.

Awesome painting too! You have a nice tough in blogging and art to keep it simple and beautiful. Not sure why it took me 7 blockchain years to discover you but happy I finally did!
