Let Sleeping Dogs Lie.

If we pass by a dog that is sleeping on the wayside, it is always better to leave it alone without waking it up. It is better to leave the troubles even if they look harmless. Instead of that if we unnecessarily try to handle them, they might become extremely dangerous. Shrewd politicians are often aware that a section of the public is always on the out to unsettle their position and power. But such politicians wisely leave those sections of people undisturbed. By leaving them as such, they will remain harmless. The small troubles in life are always better left alone if they do not pose much danger. They are much like the sleeping dog because they don’t pose any serious problems. It is unwise and dangerous to deal with them. They may stir up unwanted troubles.
