I have written in the MMM before
about wisdom and our ongoing pursuit of it.
I have also written about how impatient we are as humans. Impatience and wisdom do not go well
together. Consider the following which
addresses both points…
Wisdom is not proven by argument or debate. Wisdom is proven over time. Some people adamantly proclaim that their
opinion is best. Regardless of how
convincingly these people defend their viewpoint, time is the best judge of
their wisdom. The result of a practice
proves its validity, not how loudly it is promoted. 1
Be wary of those who seek to have
their own wisdom acknowledged before it can be proven over time. Also, be patience with your own understanding
of wisdom.
Have a blessed week.
