Judgment or understanding,
often think there,
make the good choice,
one of them is the truth
and brings solace,
the other one eats away at the soul
and improves fogs,
understanding or judgment,
choose before thinking.

Yes, if only everyone would think like this, Yann - but you are doing your bit to spread the word - don't stop!

Thank you Margherita, your comment mean a lot and I admit that when I'm tired it is easier to judge that to understand but things go quickly wrong when you spend your time judging people....

have a nice day

Thank you Owl, we are quick to think like others and many judge instinctively without any underdstanding....I think we should read again the french philosophers of the 17th and 18th century, they told so interesting things...I particularly love Montaigne (is it the good century ?)

have a sweet day

Very gentle thoughts here, yann.  As the others before me said, they are very wise too.
