Home of the hovering eagle
Good morning world
We live in a world of money advice, yet there is more to life than knowing how to make money. While money like a lot of things has some utility value, having lots of it doesn’t mean you’re wise or a good person.
This blog offers not advice rather insights on matters other than just money. Like a hovering eagle the essence of wisdom comes from observation and the application of what’s observed.
I’ve been hovering about just under 60 years and what’s written here is what I’ve learnt thus far. Such as:
- Knowledge is useless, if its purpose is to satisfy just self.
- Wisdom is predominantly about observing the errors of others and not replicating them.
- Foresight is a scarce commodity worth more than gold.
- Poetry is about seeing what others fail to care about.
- One man can’t have all the answers, though that depends on who he is.
- Never be overly sure of much for the knowledge you have is always partial.
- There is more happiness in giving then there is in receiving – exchanging isn’t giving.
- Those who desire unconditional love have observed very little.
- The world teaches as theory that all men are unaccountable – they may well be wrong.
- It is better to risk little and lose than risk all and win.
A Hovering Eagle
As rabbits fleece along the ground
So men themselves can see no wrong
Forecasting things they do not know
Unlike an eagle soaring high
Gliding slow with out a sound
A lyric in the sky, a song
Eyes like tentacles they grow
To grab its prey below to die
So men when wrong in vain they cry.
