WISE UP: A few thoughts on what wisdom means to me.
Here is the thing about wisdom:
It is not about knowing the right or perfect thing to say. Wisdom is knowing when to keep quiet. You have to let people come to their own conclusions; the truth is we have to learn from our own mistakes. What may have been a hard lesson for you to learn may be something that another person understands. All of our journeys are different and even though we are desperate to help sometimes that means not saying anything at all. I am not saying you shouldn’t warn people of potential hardships and downfalls. Most of all wisdom is accepting that you can never know or understand everything. Accepting that there will always be something to learn and understand leads to an open and tolerant mind. From what I can see in this world no matter how much we wish the world were black and white, it’s not. So, let’s try and listen more guys, let’s work on understanding every point of view, lets open our eyes to ever possibility, and most of all let's try and be a more tolerant people.
Love always,
