The Art of Discernment (with horses and life)

There is a story that I have heard told about Mahatma Gandhi. It has been said that during a time in his life while amidst protest, Gandhi had sworn himself to an oath of silence.  A reporter caught up with him to ask a question.  He wanted to know just what kind of message was Gandhi trying to convey? The train that Gandhi was preparing to board was now readying to depart the station. The reporter continued with his question as Gandhi climbed silently aboard. As the train began to pull away Gandhi held to the window a sign with a hand written answer for the reporter. It read "My life is my message."
