Every now and again take a good look at something not made with hands
- a mountain, a star, the turn of a stream.
There will come to you wisdom and patience and solace
and, above all, the assurance that you are not alone in the world.
Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.
—Albert EinsteinThe beginning of wisdom is found in doubting; by doubting we come to the question, and by seeking we may come upon the truth.
—Pierre AbelardOften our eyes see "those who are".....
But who are we? A simple reflection of those who are?
I am reminded to look within my own soul for answers.
For we are all given a spirit of wisdom.
Today may I not only see those who are, but may I also see who I am.
The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.
—Ralph Waldo EmersonGod grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
—Serenity Prayer
