Sage

Here is an interesting conversation: Pilate (a man in authority) is talking to Jesus (my person of authority)

Pilate: Are you a king?

Jesus: You say that I am king. To this end was I born, and for this cause I came into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Everyone that is of the truth hears my voice.

Pilate: What is truth?

Pilate then walks out the room and goes to the Jews and says to them:

I find in Him no fault at all.

John 18 : 37, 38. (Sandy’s understanding. The whole chapter kept my interest. What is truth?)
A bottle of sage leaves.

Sage green is a colour that can express wisdom. As a green, it also communicates peace and growth and speaks of ecology and growth.

The sage does not hoard. The more he helps others, the more he benefits himself ,the more he gives to others, the more he gets himself. The way of heaven does one good but never does one harm. The way of the sage is to act but not compete.

Lao Tzu He was born 571 BC, he was an ancient Chinese philosopher who was the founder of Taoism. He also said,‘ The career of a sage is of two kinds: He is either honoured by all the world, like a flower waving it’s head, Or else he disappears into the silent forest.‘
Looking at leaves through a layer of ice.

Three things can not be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

Buddha He lived in the 6th or 5th century BC as a wandering ascetic and religious teacher in South Asia . He was the founder of Buddhism.

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Jesus Christ

If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end despair.

C.S.Lewis

It is expectedly cold. Keep warm if your world is cold and keep well.
