Commentary re: wisdom

Hermann Hesse..."Knowledge can be communicated, but NOT WISDOM. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it."

Wisdom is acquired by how you process the knowledge acquired through life. It is an accumulation of experiences and teachings, it is how you learn to accept love and hate and how you choose to deal with with affection and rejection. Wisdom is knowing when to walk away from a fight or stand your ground. Wisdom is what kicks in when emotions become unreasonable. Wisdom is the ignition to the motor that drives your rationality and the brakes to a runaway imagination. Wisdom is acquired by choosing to be open to truth and an instinct to reject lies and manipulation. M. Beatty 2/8/2013 Hermann Hesse..."Knowledge can be communicated, but NOT WISDOM. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it."
