This is so so good ...
I had never known these profound distinctions between #intelligence and #Wisdom. Found it
#TooGoodNotToShare ..

1 Intelligence leads to arguments.
Wisdom leads to to settlements

2 Intelligence is power of will.
Wisdom is power OVER will
3 Intelligence is heat, it burns.
Wisdom is warmth, it comforts

4 Intelligence is pursuit of knowledge,it tires the seeker.
Wisdom is pursuit of truth, it inspires the seeker

5 Intelligence is holding on.
Wisdom is letting go

6 Intelligence leads you.
Wisdom guides you
7 An intelligent man thinks he knows everything.
A wise person knows that there is still something to learn

8 An intelligent person always tries to prove his point.
A wise person knows there really is no point
9 An intelligent person freely gives unsolicited advice.
A wise person keeps his counsel until all options are considered

10 An intelligent person understands what is being said.
A wise person understands what is left unsaid
11 An intelligent man speaks when he has to say something.
A wise man speaks when he has something to say

12 An intelligent man sees everything as relative.
A wise man sees everything as related
13 An intelligent person tries to control the mass flow.
A wise person navigates the mass flow

14 An intelligent person preaches.
A wise person reaches.

Intelligence is good
but wisdom achieves better results.

#HappySunday 🙏

#TooGoodNotToShare

Today on the #FirstSundayOfTheYear At about 4 am(I would Say Pre-Dawn) I heard someone speaking to me “Wake up,You cannot be Sleeping & Making This Wonderful Day Short" by Sleeping till late
I Woke up immediately looking for Where the Voice came from? I found that This Voice was from Within me. By now my Slumber had Vanished and I was fully awake . I left the bed, made a cup of tea and sat out in the balcony, enjoying the cool breeze and sipping my morning Tea
Various Thoughts started to Swim within me and then the below happened.

My Heart asked me a question. "Where is Success."

My Mind immediately Replied to My Heart, you, My Friend always Run to the World of Fantasy.

I read a beautiful #ShortStory and found it #TooGoodNotToShare

#WhoPackedYourParachute

Air Commodore Vishal was a Jet Pilot. In a combat mission his fighter plane was destroyed by a missile. He however ejected himself and parachuted safely.
He won acclaims and appreciations from many.

After five years one day he was sitting with his wife in a restaurant. A man from another table came to him & said "You're Captain Vishal! You flew jet fighters. You were shot down!"

“How in the world did you know that?” asked Vishal
“I packed your parachute," the man smiled and replied.

Vishal gasped in surprise and gratitude and thought if parachute hadn't worked, I wouldn’t be here today. Vishal couldn't sleep that night, thinking about that man.

 With the demise of The Weekly Standard, I'm afraid its Neocon minions will spread.

Like popping a zit sprays puss on the mirror:

Already the Left...er,sorry, I meant TruCon/#Never Trump...is promoting Squeaky Ben Shapiro.

Rumors are he's getting @ASavageNation's radio spot.
@ASavageNation 2/
Weakly Standard™ (sic), National Review, and the rest of the barely-disguised Trotskyites were always controlled opposition.

Reason mag, Cato, Niskanen, and other "libertarian" think tanks gather up the stragglers who are *trying* to think for themselves.
@ASavageNation 3/
By owning both sides of the field, the Left can deny any intellectual air-time to the REAL opposition.

TruCons, lazy Boomer conservatives can nod sagely at NRO or Reason "MUH LOWER TAXES" articles.

While making bugger-all difference.

#OSHO

#Intelligence is a response to a new situation, not out of your past memories but from your present awareness, this very moment.

Intelligence is a spontaneous #responsibility. It has been misunderstood. It has become almost equivalent to #duty. The #reality is different.
There has been a perennial conflict between #intelligence and #intellect.

The man of intellect thinks that he is #intelligent because he knows so much. He has accumulated a great heritage of #knowledge, he is burdened with all kinds of #information.
The man of #intelligence is innocent; he functions moment to moment, his functioning has a freshness and a beauty. But to find intelligence one has to go beyond the mind. #Meditation is the way.

"If when prosperity befalls us, we express gratitude to God so,
when adversity befalls us, we should endure it patiently.
'And, I shall certain test you by afflicting you with fear, hunger, loss of properties and lives and fruits.
Give glad tidings then to the patient, those ...
... who when any affliction smites them they say: 'Verily, we belong to God, and it is to Him that we are destined to return.'

This is such an exalted cause that only those guided by unshakable faith can walk this path to reach the goal. Every step of this path is rough and is strewn with thorns. But, at the end of this ...

Good Lord! It never fails that I step away from the frey for a day and come back to something like THIS! Mind blowing! #FridayFeeling #NoFamilySeparation

2/ This is too long to fully thread for those of you who can't get past the pay wall, but here's a little bit of the gist: "The White House is actively considering plans that could again separate parents and children at the U.S.-Mexico border, hoping to reverse soaring numbers of
3/"families attempting to cross illegally into the United States, according to several administration officials with direct knowledge of the effort. One option under consideration is for the government to detain asylum-seeking families together for up to 20 days, then give

@conor64 has it right. Political correctness: good or bad? Identity politics: good or bad? Answer: who cares? These are the wrong questions to be asking.
I've read more articles from Quillette than I care to admit and I can say with 100% certainty that two things are true: (a) They hate PC and ID politics; and (b) They have no idea what they are. Seriously, there's massive disagreement about what these terms mean. That's not good!
Rather than strain to draw tortured distinctions between PC and civility, or between ID politics and politics more generally, why not just admit that we should judge these things based on their goals? That just seems more rational to me.

It will, however, generate fewer clicks.

Empathy (narrowly FEELING another's pain) prompts us to care deeply about a dozen Thai kids trapped in a cave...#good. Compassion (love, understanding, & concern in the face of suffering) causes us to care about them AND the tragic flooding of 1000's in Japan...#better (cont.)
Empathy shines a narrow spotlight on the few, and can cause us to overreact and act short-term to relieve pain. You can't empathize with 100's or with a statistical abstraction like massive flooding. You empathize with one story at a time, and you FEEL it personally. (cont.)
Compassion involves understanding, concern, and love in response to suffering wherever it's found. You don't assume the suffering as your own, but you act sustainably to try and relieve it. This may involve "tough love..." say, with addiction (cont.)
