The First Knot Wrong Love Ends in Regret The first knot in the heart is wrong love or a wrong desire for love. In other words, we love someone whom we are not supposed to love. That kind of love ends up in tragedy such as murder, breakup of the family, etc. We often see such stories on TV and in newspapers. Are such cases caused by passing temptations? Actually, they happen because people do not control their minds well, thus causing themselves a lot of trouble. Therefore, in daily life, we must look after our minds well. If we behave ourselves and do not have any wrong desires, we can live peacefully and at ease. -------------------------------------- Show me your smile ------------- |
