Simplified Meaning:
A wise person remains consistent in their thoughts, actions, and character, no matter what situation they're in. For example, think about a tree that maintains its strength and stability even when the weather changes. In the same way, a wise person stays calm and true to their values, whether things are going well or poorly. This consistency helps them make good decisions because they’re not swayed by emotions or external pressures. For instance, if a friend is always kind and honest, you can trust them because their behavior doesn’t change. To apply this idea to your life, try to stay true to your principles and values in every situation, which will help you earn respect and trust from others.
