the old man on the mountain.


A good friend of mine told me this quote, "you can tell if a person is intelligent by his answer, you can tell if he is wise by his question". And I would have to say that i agree with it. Another favourite quote of mine is by Sheila Walsh, a beautiful lady inside and out who is also blessed with an amazing voice. She once said that, "Knowledge can be learned, but wisdom must be earned. Wisdom is knowledge ... lived."

I would say that there are many many intelligent people in this world, however to find one who is wise is not so simple a task. In Proverbs 3 : 13 it is written "Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains undertstanding". Hopefully, i'll be that happy man some day :P an intelligent man may not be wise, however a wise man is always smart. thats what i think ;)


Do you seek wisdom?

The Lord says, ' I will make you wise and show you where to go,

I will guide you and watch over you. ' Psalms 32 : 8
