Allow presentation of some words by Socrates.
“The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting
the old, but on building the new.”
“He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with
what he would like to have.”
“Let him who would move the world first move himself.”
“Do not do to others what angers you if done to you by others.”
"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."
In my humbled opinion, Socrates was far wiser than I will ever be. Your
words could be seen as offensive. Some of us choose a path found within
the wisdom presented in Socrates' words.
Instead of moving the world, we move ourselves. Instead of fighting
the old, we create the new. Instead of desiring what we have not, we
are content in what we have. Instead of telling others how to live and
assailing them with our lifestyle as a be all and end all, we live
quietly and peacefully with others.
This way seems not to expend energy in a manner what suits you. We
could apologize in that your approval was not sought out. We could also
apologize you only seem grand king of the world in your own mind alone.
It seems though any such apologies will be artificial at best. So, we'll
merely close here without bothering being offended by your words above.
Have a good one.
