Foolish Barking

Bark not on things you can't understand 
And on the things that you can't do;
Don't dive blindly into a water 
Without knowing its depth. 

Just leave a grape when it is sour 
You don't need to bark about its sourness. 
But if you want to have a sweet grape
Better learn to plant your own.
