Embracing the Present

Listen well, for I shall impart wisdom. The desire for affection, absent the love of learning, leads to naivety. The pursuit of knowledge, without a passion for learning, falls into conceit. The quest for truth, lacking the love of learning, descends into harshness. The preference for honesty, without a learning spirit, leads to coarseness. The inclination for boldness, devoid of learning, becomes chaotic. The admiration for power, without the guidance of learning, turns into eccentricity.

The bell starts to ring,
