There is no nobility in poverty
Sofar what i got from the movie

He washed the feet of the ones who’d walk away.
He broke bread with the one who’d break Him.
That’s not weakness that’s divine love.

THE WISE DON’T HAVE “PROBLEMS” “This is why we say that nothing happens to the wise person contrary to their expectations.” —SENECA, ON TRANQUILITY OF MIND, 13.3b
Hesiod, the poet, said that “the best treasure is a sparing tongue.” Robert Greene considers it a law ofpower: Always Say Less Than Necessary.
We talk because we think it’s helping, whereas in reality it’s making things hard for us. If our spouse isventing, we want to tell them what they should do. In fact, all they actually want us to do is hear them. Inother situations, the world is trying to give us feedback or input, but we try to talk ourselves out of theproblem—only to make it worse.
So today, will you be part of the problem or part of the solution? Will you hear the wisdom of theworld or drown it out with more noise?

What you see in this satellite image is a mass grave of people killed by RSF attackers in the El Fasher area of Sudan within the past two days! The satellite photo even zooms in to show pools of blood and piles of bodies! Yes — this is still Africa.
A continent where people say, “I am holy; I have higher moral values than the rest of the world,” yet here we are — Africa!

When I see what Africans are living through and where they are today, it reminds me of Europe’s Dark Ages — only this time, it’s Africa’s turn. I ask myself, “Why don’t we learn from history?” And before I can find an answer, I drift into another thought.
What amazes me most is that those same Europeans — the ones we say have lost their morals — are now a hundred times more civilized than we are! The countries that once tried to cleanse the world of peaceful nations — the Scandinavian and European nations — have reached a stage where people live happily.
Then I say, “Alright, they are healthy and fine,” but still, not much has changed. As I pause to think, seeing Europe’s elegance, I can’t help but wonder — have the thoughtful, moral Europeans of today become better than their faithful ancestors?
And I question: could it be that freedom breeds cruelty, and that thinking too deeply leads to suffering? Where, I wonder, did those philosophers who said such things even get their ideas from? I kept pondering deeply...
