"What then is the meaning of a MASTER? Is Master the one with the most possessions and control over townships? Is Master the one with the strongest army?
I tell you Master is the one who is the master of his desires!
Master of his speech, Master of his silence, his bitterness in place and his sweetness timely! Such a man not being a servant to these, is a Master in truth! Else his qualities become his burden to bear."
I have heard this message in another place as: "He who has mastered his carnal self, he has mastered life" The amount of discipline needed to bring the necessary changes at any given crossroad of our lives, is the very stuff of masterhood.The lines between what to do or not to do become greatly diminished as one approaches the age of wisdom (independent of age) acquiring a true state of choice with which comes great responsibility!
