The Indifference virtue
is not one of passivity
but rather of activity.
Conventional wisdom says
Indifference is lethargic
with apathy and doubtfulness.
Epiphanic wisdom says
Indifference is energetic
with listening and non-judgment.
Ironically, Indifference
realizes proper submission
and grateful poverty of spirit.
Heartily, Indifference
forges a blessed discernment
and graced responsibility.

smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant. You may quote me."
Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
