Powerful thought

✨Some discussions don’t start to be resolved.
They start because someone wants to win.

Let me tell you a story.

A donkey said to a tiger:
“The grass is blue.”

The tiger replied:
“No… it’s green.”

It kept escalating
until they took it to the lion.

The donkey insisted:
“Your Majesty, the grass is blue, isn’t it?”

The lion replied:
“If you believe it is blue… then it is.”

And he punished the tiger.

Confused, the tiger asked:
“But if the grass is green… why was I punished?”

The lion answered:

This has nothing to do
with the color of the grass.

It makes no sense
for someone with your clarity
to waste time arguing
with someone who doesn’t want to understand…
only to be right.

The greatest waste of time
is trying to prove something
to someone who has already decided
what they want to believe.

When ignorance insists,
intelligence steps back.

Not every conversation
deserves your energy.

💭Maybe it’s not about convincing.
Maybe it’s about knowing
when to step away.
