To you, all you have seems small; to me, all I have seems great.
Your desire is insatiable; mine is satisfied.
See children thrusting their hands into a narrow-necked jar, and striving to pull out the nuts and figs it contains: if they fill the hand, they cannot pull it out again, and then they fall to tears.
"Let go a few of them, and then you can draw out the rest!"
You, too, let your desire go! covet not many things, and you will obtain.
