Wisdom is for a protection, (the same as) money is for a protection; but the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom itself preserves alive it's owners ~Wise King Solomon~ [bodytext] => This creation is found on the Thomas Jefferson Memorial


"WISDOM OF THE SOUL"

Without your permission, no one can ruin your day.
You'll be about as happy as you decide to be, in every way!
Temporarily, others may stop you--yourself.........permanently!
Whatever you are willing to put up with, is what you will get boldly
Success stops when you do!
When your ship comes in--make sure you are willing to unload and pursue.
You will never "Have it all together!"
Life is a journey--not a destination--enjoy the trip, don't be bitter!
On this planet, the biggest lie--"When you get what you want, you'll be happy!"
The best way to solve your problem is to solve it, amply!
Learn that 'takers' lose and 'givers' win!
Life's precious moments don't have value, unless shared from within.
If you don't start, it's certain you won't arrive.
Things we want the most we often fear.....but, we survive!
Everyone hears what you say.
Friends listen to what you have to say.
Best friends will listen to what you don't say!
Yesterday was the deadline for all complaints.....
Look for opportunities--not guarantees, failure taints.
Life is what is coming--not what was!
Success is getting up one more time, no matter the cause!
Right now, the present, is the most interesting time of all.
When things go wrong, don't go with them--you'll fall!
Sometimes, the majority only means that all the fools are on the same side.
Just because you are the minority, doesn't mean you're wrong--so buck the tide!
I know God can mend all broken hearts, that is if you give him all the pieces.
Ask a question, you might be a fool for five minutes,
but the person who never asks, is the a fool and brain food for zealots!
A four leaf clover is like your best friend, they are hard to find, and to have one makes you lucky!
Friends will reach for your hand, and touch your heart, making you cheery!
Fighting is easy, but to take a stand and walk away, takes more strength than to stay!
You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.
Simply say, "No Thank You," and bid them abieu.....
It's more important to look ahead, that's why your eyes are in front of your head.
Don't go back in the past, let it go, live today, one day at a time, instead!
Loving yourself first, before you can love another,
Always having a loving heart, sincere, honest, not a counterfeit actor!

Alas wisdom is such a discounted virtue.... nowadays at least... knowledge before wisdom and interests before needs.But nonetheless great inspirational work as always.
