Wisdom’s fortune lies within every moment in time,
Knowledge worth pursuing I can incorporate as mine.
To take cognizance of the blessing in every moment,
As we appreciate the value of mercy and atonement.
We can find a journey’s end in every step of the road,
The turtle finds deliberate pace in every step slowed.
Animals have native wisdom and never compromise,
The owl gives a sense of wisdom without being wise.
We speak ill of the cavemen for their lack of wisdom,
When we know nothing of their world or their fiefdom.
To ponder upon immortal thought will extend our days,
To understand our finite mortality will change our ways.
Fools will spend endless days forever mocking the wise,
The wise are surrounded by silence and nothing despise.,
WISDOM, IMPARTED TO US THROUGH GOD'S WORD, IS THAT PRICELESS NECESSITY WHICH NONE CAN DO WITHOUT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR 'WISE' WORDS MY FRIEND. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE * HIS INSSPIRATIONS
Fantastic write, John! For anyone to point a finger at the Caveman and speak ill of him causes three fingers to be pointing back at ourselves. Again, fantastic!
Yes, wisdom is the ability to look upon situations and know them, not despise them.
I have been following a television series, Naked and Afraid. The participants in the 21 day trial lose weight equivalent to their reaching malnutrition, if not starvation. In order for the brutal and ignorant caveman to have survived, drawn epic exploits on cave walls, and become us, one has to understand that they survived only by hunting and gathering, something that very few can do do today.
Indeed. Fool: a fusty nut with no kernel. (-: The wise do at once what the fools do at last. Personally, I've found my best insights listening in silence. We love solitude. Especially in the mountains and high desert. Enjoyed this. Peace... r
the wisdom to be weak in order to overcome the strong. But how to implement that? . . I don't know other way but to focus on my weaknesses. The notions of wisdom and foolishness belong to outsiders to estimate, while deeply inside of us they do not exist. this is what makes us be one with nature once we act from within. a nicely creating piece.
