Stop looking at faces and pockets

Stop looking at faces and pockets; start looking into hearts. If you seek a partner, seek the state of their heart. Pride, lust, and greed are poisons — wherever they dwell, corruption follows. The more these diseases dominate a person, the more sophisticated and complicated their darkness becomes, and the harder peace will be with them.

A clean heart doesn’t mean perfection; it means awareness — a willingness to reflect, admit wrongs, and change course when astray.

Any relationship founded on lust, greed, or pride will inevitably end in pain and frustration.
