The world needs wise leaders

More money and prestige
does not necessarily mean:
More wisdom, more leadership quality.
It often means the opposite,
by causing money and power to infect one’s head,
transforming the heart into ice and coldness,
expressing ruthlessness and arrogance.

A simple person with a heart
may well have more wisdom,
than a person with pockets full of money,
can understand people better
than those who look down on them from above,
thinking they are better than others,
exercise control over others,
humiliate and degrade others.

Wisdom means leading with humanity,
not acting like a tyrant,
Wisdom for the good of all,
not hiding in one’s own ego,
to share with the poor and needy,
to stand up for the weak with honour,
not behaving like an unbridled animal.

The world needs wise leaders.
