Sage.
What does it take to be a Sage?(not the herb)....
It seems to be specified by a exemplary moral example that people will follow as mentioned by my master confucius. Its very intriguing to realise that all the philosophies are starting to make more sense to me now than when I was younger (like 13 years old when I stepped into the world of philosophy with ethics).
No wonder Confucius said: "At fifteen, I had my mind bent on learning. At thirty, I stood firm. At forty, I had no doubts. At fifty, I knew the decrees of Heaven. At sixty, my ear was an obedient organ for the reception of truth. At seventy, I could follow what my heart desired, without transgressing what was right."
I think this learning process is going to get tougher but It seems I can be able to understand more and draw more from my life experiences.
So many years ahead of me, so much more to learn. Great hope it isnt mathematics...
