CNY Inspirations: Life lessons
The late Rev. Dr. Louis C. Walker Sr., the pastor of my formative years, exerted a powerful influence on my life. One of his sayings was, “Never tell all that you know, but know all that you tell!”
I didn’t understand the impact of that statement, but I celebrate it now. It’s not about keeping secrets or inside information, but about portions of your journey that need to be retained as inspiration to press forward. Like Mary, the mother of Jesus did some things that need to be kept in your heart’s vault!

Zen Fable : Balance and Moderation
An aged monk, who had lived a long and active life, was assigned a chaplain’s role at an academy for girls. In discussion groups he often found that the subject of love became a central topic. This comprised his warning to the young women:
“Understand the danger of anything-too-much in your lives. Too much anger in combat can lead to recklessness and death. Too much ardor in religious beliefs can lead to close-mindedness and persecution.
Too much passion in love creates dream images of the beloved – images that ultimately prove false and generate anger. To love too much is to lick honey from the point of a knife.”
“But as a celibate monk,” asked one young woman, “how can you know of love between a man and a woman?”
“Sometime, dear children,” replied the old teacher, “I will tell you why I became a monk.”
Interpretation ::
Without saying much, this tale shows us how we need to lead a life of moderation and balance all the time.
