"The intelligent want self-control; children want candy."
~ Mevlana Rumi, 13th century sufi poet and mystic from Rumi Daylight: A Daybook of Spiritual Guidance
I don’t know about you, but I’d like the candy AND the self-control. :)
Seriously. (Well, actually I was serious. :)). Self-mastery. All the wise teachers profess its power.
Another way Rumi says it: “The lion who breaks the enemy’s ranks is a minor hero compared to the lion who overcomes himself.”
Here's to the pursuit of self-control (and the candy that comes as a result)!
