Translated By Ralph D. Sawyer
Excerpt:
#24
” Those on tiptoe do not stand;
Those striding do not walk.
One who boasts lacks achievements;
One who is arrogant does not long persist.”
(page 129)
Hermit Poet’s Comments: It is best not to brag about achievements. Social media has given a platform for people to talk about themselves and the things in their life in a narcissistic manner. This long term will not be good for society.
