I don't want to jinx,
Not getting bigheaded like the Great Sphinx.
Better than ever,
Becoming quite clever.
Finding that inner peace,
Creating my own steady niche.

Great men/women are not always wise. Who said that?! It's Job 32 v.9 in Old Testament, but I don't think Job says it himself. It's Elihu, one of Job's comforters'.
But I expect you're wise! Well, it don't say 'Great men are NEVER wise'! lol.
I prefer the Old Testament so much more than the new, I thought the new one was too watered down.
There's parts of the Old that are rough, violent, horrific. Some bits of the New are too. Not all of it though - old or new!
Yeah I understand, I dunno the overall messaging and morals mean't more to me in that and I think they were watered down in the new.
They may seem to be watered down in places in the New. But using a 'spiritual' word, the New can be milder, with Jesus as the propitiation for our sins - appeasing, or atoning, bringing mildness into the relationship of a loving God, yet angry at those who persist in sins. So it's not mild in places in the Old, but 'raw', harsh, no mercy after a while.
Meanwhile - you wiser?! Got one brain cell more now, like I have?! lol.
Yes, I understand what you are saying there.
