What Wisdom is to me
Putting yourself in another’s shoes
And to be understanding
To be light in the dark
To learn
To grow
To show love to everyone you meet
Even if they seem undeserving
To help and teach
Realizing that you are always going
to learn
Be open to new ideas and learn to love new things
Wisdom is infinite...

At The End of Every Beginning You Will find a Piece of Wisdom.
True wisdom is a gift that can’t be seen by all.
It’s a special light used to see past the shadow and hallways that appear to be slightly to narrow to walk through.
It’s the sum of a long journey that sometimes leaves permanent scars.
It’s the ending of the story that keeps your heart racing during the whole read.
It’s the reason you walk away from a job that doesn’t pay you what your worth.
It’s the sacrifice that you make that causes you pain so a loved one can shine.
It’s the glasses you put on that finally prompt you to leave your old life behind.
Wisdom is the water you find in the well that never runs out, that will forever satisfy your thirst.

There are different kinds of intelligence, all quite impressive:
The ability to memorize information and spit it back out when needed (this is what society generally calls "smart")
The ability to promote creativity and general sophistication to use that in everyday actions (this is what society generally calls "creative")
The ability to see a situation, form a new idea in your head, and use it (this is what society generally calls "innovative")
The ability to access all three of the above and teach that effectively to someone else (this is what society should be calling "wisdom")
Knowing
Just the knowledge that
Just because you can do something
Doesn’t mean you should.
Knowing sometimes
Silence is the loudest noise.
Wisdom is knowing the difference between
Right and wrong.
Knowing that sometimes people do
The wrong things for the right reasons.
Conversely
People do the right things for the
Wrong reasons.
Wisdom is quite aware that good people
Have a smidge if bad staining their soul.
And likewise,
Even so called bad apples
Have a smidgin of good lighting that
Which we can’t see.
Wisdom is to live and let live
To live and love.
To be aware - and
Bring awareness to
That
Which is
To Where You Want To Be
There are days where we are walking alone finding our way home. If you haven't found your way down the road, or over the hills, walking along rivers, lost as to which was to needed go. You might feel like you'll never get there.
But what can you do, where can you go when home is nearer than has been and yet you feel you are so far?
When you can. Slow. When you have a chance. Look ahead. When you have a second. Look behind you. What do you think? What is missing? What do you need the most?
And can you find it? Wisdom is what happens when you go home. And I think you're almost there.
