“He avoids tale-bearing, and abstains from it. What he has heard here, he does not repeat there, so as to cause dissension there; and what he heard there, he does not repeat here, so as to cause dissension here. Thus he unites those that are divided; and those that are united, he encourages. Concord gladdens him, he delights and rejoices in concord, and it is concord that he spreads by his words. . . . He avoids harsh language, and abstains from it.”

—from Buddha, The Word, translated by Paul Carus

Explanation:

A man, a Buddhist, is on his way home.  He's late. He knows his wife will be worried. He has no way of communicating with her. He does not want to waste time, but he does not want to worry needlessly either.

He must stoop fretting. He will be home soon enough. He must clear his mind of all thoughts but one -- that one being that he not fret lest there are two people fretting, neither accomplishing anything.

The meditates as he walks. He sees a butterfly heading towards a flower. He accepts the harmony of the butterfly and the flower.

He hurries home.

This uses 8 of the Eightfold Path.
