Good morning friends
Yesterday I was waiting to cross the busy main road near my house. A steady stream of vehicles was flowing through the road making it impossible to cross it. Just then there was a very loud, irritating noise which disrupted the relative peace of the busy road. And this sound was the persistent honking from a scooter whose owner wanted to get ahead quickly. Next to the scooter was an SUV, which was gliding smoothly and silently.
As I saw this , I noticed that the smaller vehicle was making much more noise than the bigger, stronger vehicle. And doesn’t that happen often in life too ? Those with only a partial understanding of things tend to show off a lot; while those with a deeper understanding of the world choose to remain silent and humble.
In marathi, there’s a saying, उथळ पाण्याला खळखळाट फार, which aptly describes this situation.
I hope we all can refrain from behaving like the noisy scooter,
Love,
Anjali
