More From Pythagoras

We cannot choose how many years we will live, but we can choose how much life those years will have. we cannot control the beauty of our face, but we can control the expression on it. we cannot control life's difficult moments but we can choose to make life less difficult. we cannot control the negative atmosphere of the world, but we can control the atmosphere of our minds. too often we try to choose and control things we cannot. too seldom we choose to control what we can ... our attitude.

Is he prepared to support, at his own expense, projects and undertakings designed to help the needy? is he prepared to pay higher taxes so that public authorities may expand their efforts in the work of development? is he prepared to pay more for imported goods, so that the foreign producer may make a fairer profit? is he prepared to emigrate from his homeland if necessary and if he is young, in order to help the emerging nations?

The white man is too intelligent to let someone else come and gain control of the economy of his community. but you will let anyone come in and take control of the economy of your community, control the housing, control the education, control the jobs, control the businesses, under the pre-text that you want to integrate. no, you outta your mind.

Much has been said of the loneliness of wisdom, and how much the truth seeker becomes a pilgrim wandering from star to star. to the ignorant, the wise man is lonely because he abides in distant heights of the mind. but the wise man himself does not feel lonely. wisdom brings him nearer to life; closer to the heart of the world than the foolish man can ever be. bookishness may lead to loneliness, and scholarship may end in a battle of beliefs, but the wise man gazing off into space sees not an emptiness, but a space full of life, truth, and law.

Sovereignty is the term the bible uses to describe god's perfect control and management of the universe. he preserves and governs every element. he's continually involved with all created things, directing them to act in a way that fulfills his divine purpose. that's why the most stressed-out people are control freaks. they fail at the quest they most pursue. the more they try to control the world, the more they realize they cannot. life becomes a cycle of anxiety, failure; anxiety, failure; anxiety, failure. we can't take control, because control is not ours to take.
