The ZigZag Café

We will be convening here at the ZigZag café, Suisse, on Thursdays for conversation and dialogue. I invite you to stop by every Thursday for the question of the day. Your thoughts and participation are most welcome. Pull up a stool, avec un café, un thé, ou un chocolat chaud, et un croissant, and join in here on Thursday at the ZZ café.

For today:

What is wisdom and where is it to be found?

this may be a bit leas than a week late
but i thought
i would attempt to answer
the posed question:

wisdom
is being aware of the existence
of diversity and variety.

a diversity which occurs
not only within societies and culture but also
in environment, physiology, biology, and even thru
life experiences.


to be wise
means
to ask questions humbly. to search for knowledge
in every crevice, corner and space available
to
each one of us.

the most wise
is not the one who
has attained
the
most
academic knowledge or survival
skills or even professional ability
but the one who realizes
that relationships are of utmost importance.
and only theu each other
can we survive
wholly.
wisdom
is attained
thru choosing to have a conversation
with the twelve year
old or
the stubborntly skepical
twenty one year old :].

i log
to
be wise and
to love
wholeheartedly.

Michelle,
Thanks. Precious words. Thoughtful, eloquent, and passionate. I love how you don't reduce wisdom, but do center it in the one who realizes that relationships are primary.
