Believe not the messenger-
Experience not another’s words,
Look into the soul to find the truth-
Feel what is there for you.
Focus not on the appearance-
Listen not to hasty words,
Trust what you know to be-
Understand what others don’t.
Act not on rash judgment-
Be not like those before,
Choose what is best for you-
Live your life to be happy.
