“The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in
the common.”
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
Someone once told me that to acquire knowledge you must study; but to acquire wisdom, you must be observant. You just don’t receive wisdom; you must discover it for yourself with a journey that no one else can take for you. Look at the sunset tonight or the sunrise tomorrow and see its uniqueness. Has there ever been one exactly like the one you see now? I doubt it. Closely observe the sky; clouds, trees, flowers, plants and view the horizon as well as your city skyline. They never appear the same twice because everything around you is in the process of growing or dying. So here are some hints in gaining that mark of wisdom in your life. Start each day not as another boring drudgery, but rather as an opportunity to observe, learn, grow and be happy. Embrace life’s simple pleasures with all of its mystery and majesty. Teach yourself to be exuberant, joy-filled, to be grateful and to appreciate all the abundance of the blessings you have been given. Giving thanks to your Maker is the most important key to gaining insight and wisdom. Thank your Lord for your many blessings and the opportunity to live out another beautiful day!
