Confidence comes,
when one sees his own self
as the wheel that steers the direction of his life.

Foresee the threats,
only so that you develop
the courage to clear the thorns in your path.

For how long, My child,
will you stand rooted to the ground
in your fear for the challenge ahead!

Live the life of self discipline,
and you will be able to conquer every fear.

Practice developing
the restraint that will prevent
you from acting against the nature of the true self.

Such continuous control will,
eventually, stop one from reacting,
impulsively, and in fact, will develop
the inner maturity that will allow one
to review his response, several times,
before he approves to react in the appropriate manner!

Such control comes, easily,
once one has begun to love
and respect the nature of the self,
for in the wish, lies the laziest of all efforts.

Realize, My child, that one can be,
only when one knows that he already is!
