Stinger

Of all people I have ever known, I was the most observant. I saw and heard what other people couldn’t. Hence I said things which other people couldn’t say.

And today I prefer to stay quiet.

I haven’t seen it all, I haven’t heard it all. Hence I haven’t said it all either. But I don’t need to do. For the real meaning is lost in our senses. For the real meaning cannot be seen or heard, and hence it cannot be said out loud.

The nut and acorn of our being is so simple, cruel and luxurious.

The meaning of all meanings, the utmost of all wisdom is to remain quiet. Like the Tao philosophy says, “Fill their stomachs, empty their minds”. At the end, the highest level of wisdom is to take your mind out of the way of your heart.

Its not easy for someone who has lived by the voice of his mind his whole life. But then, isn’t it all worth it?

The real meaning cannot be said, for the real meaning is a feeling.
