Insults

Sparrow : What do I do if someone insults?

Rose : You felt insulted, not if they do or not. It mattered to you. You believed in what they said to be true. In that believing, your ego fought for itself. And argument began.

Sparrow : But I felt sad. How else do I tackle it?

Rose : Do what they say matters? Of what significance it is. And look at the innocence of them. For they don't know what they are saying. Forgive them. For they are Immature.

Sparrow : I feel Immature too, rose.

Rose : See with my eyes. For your Immaturity is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Let your feelings guide you. With whom you feel Immature? Either they don't know what they say, or you don't. Look at yourself. And remain in truth with your speech. For if they don't understand. Let them be. For in your truth is your answer for your feelings.

Sparrow : Umbrella's a burden when rain stops. Why?

Rose : That isn't a burden. For you holded it when you needed. And then it became you. And you couldn't even feel its presence. As soon as rain comes back, you could feel its weight. For its significance is only in the weight it brings you. It's the protector of your heart. For it doesn't need anything from you. It's there.

Sparrow : I do understand.
