“A wise man cares not for what he cannot have.” George Herbert

We could also say that a wise man cares not for what he should not have. I mean, it is frustrating to want what you cannot have, but it can be fatal  to want what you should not have. The best way to avoid such temptations is to address them at the level of our desires, and want only those things which bring us lasting happiness. ~“Thou shalt not covet.” Exodus 20  Conversations Within” ts 11/23/2015
