Reading Between Hidden Lines
Always question everything.
Nobody finds the truth without questioning anything,
especially in the face of lies.
First truth, age doesn't determine how wise one is.
Talk to people who are older than you
and you'll find some who know less than you,
for only good practices and influences
shape one into a gem.
Second truth, look at the big picture
as much as possible.
Most people open the folding fan only a little,
yet others judge the design.
Only judge the design when it is fully open.
Third truth, never trust anyone completely,
even those you have known for at least ten years.
Because gold can turn even angels upside down.
