What’s in you

Be who

you are

and say

what you feel,

 

because those

who mind

don’t matter,

 

and those

who matter

don’t mind.

    Mmm. Is that the one about “whom the lion eats”? You quote an interpretation, rather than a translation.

    No idea. Any time I’ve read this it’s been presented out of context.
    But the source doesn’t concern me much. I like the thought.

      Gospel of Thomas, saying 70. Sorry, nothing to do with a lion. But I like the lion one two: saying 7: Jesus said, “Blessed is the lion that the human being will devour so that the lion becomes human. And cursed is the human being that the lion devours; and the lion will become human.” The whole thing is worth reading. All the sayings are without context.
