Amidst a field of apples, each may appear alike, yet differences lie within. Some stand firm and vibrant, while others yield to the touch, their colors muted. Our choice determines our experience and satisfaction.
We’re fortunate to navigate the orchard of knowledge, plucking ideas and actions from others and making them our own. This is how we grow and evolve, shaping our path to becoming better as we define it.
However, we must exercise discernment. Adopting the bad habits of others is pointless, and emulating someone’s mistakes is folly. Choose wisely, aligning with your virtues and goals, and discard what doesn’t serve your journey.
If we adopt any as our own, do not blame others for your shortcomings; instead, give credit for the accomplishments.
