tread carefully

[Spirit of Light]

Tread carefully in every aspect of life.
Walk with a pure mind and heart so all beings you meet on your path see the light from within you.

Tread carefully in every aspect of life.
Walk with a pure mind and heart so all beings you meet on your path see the light from within you.

And carry a big stick!

And carry a big stick!

Why the need of a stick?

 

[PoetPhilosopher]

Tread carefully in every aspect of life.
Walk with a pure mind and heart so all beings you meet on your path see the light from within you.

My guide to life is: "Be carnal, be passionate, love, love the right people, be motivated, nurture yourself, make use of your mind when it's convenient, have fun, be creative, appreciate enlightenment, be ready for greater maturity."

 

[Justanatheist]

Why the need of a stick?

I had it drumed into me as a kid, "speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far."
Go through life not causing problems but be prepared to deal with them if you have to.

Why the need of a stick?

To help take weight off my bad knee, I think.

Why the need of a stick?

One should always be prepared for what life throws at them.

The stick doesn't always have to be a weapon.

I use that one when hiking/camping and in rituals. Mostly for walking.

Mine is grapevine with an old fashioned door knob on top. It's very symbolic I guess.

 

[PoetPhilosopher]

I think it'd be interesting for me to consider carrying a walking stick for religious reasons. I wonder what kind of comments people would make at me.

Might be something interesting to read about. There's a reason behind it.

Many will look, few will ask why
