Once upon a time, in a land far away, a wise man and a foolish man sat in the marketplace.
One said to the other, “Look, the greater the truth I speak, the fewer listen! This is how I know I am on the divinely ordained path of righteousness.”
The other replied, “No, the greater the truth I speak, the more listeners gather around me! This is how I know I am on the divinely ordained path of righteousness.”
The washerwoman didn’t know much about righteousness. But she new the gift of clean sheets, honest work, good balance and following her own path through the crowds.
She waved good morning to the man at the side of the fountain, feeding the pigeons and muttering to himself.
