(1/?) Sometimes wisdom looks different than we imagine. When we’re frustrated, stuck at home, complaining, making mountains of molehills- we want wisdom to be easy. Instead we must go out and accomplish something, see how big this world is. How hard people work.
Only then we get real wisdom. And don’t worry, this ain’t some Mach tough love bullshit (not completely.) Because real wisdom is as graceful and kind as we imagined it would be. It desires a safe comfortable home for all, kindness of strangers and enjoying life. But it’s earned.
You won’t find that wisdom sitting at home frustrated. When you’re in that mode, you want quick fixes you call wisdom. You want the idea or imagine of wisdom, the picture of a smiling Buddha. But it’s just a picture. You gotta go out and see this world. See the plights of others.
See how big this world is. And then, you’ll smooth everything out and come home to a warm safe home. You’ll focus on you and your enjoyment and delightful dance of life in this world, not others. I wish this for all. Real wisdom.And again it’s as graceful and kind as you imagine
It’s just you can’t access it without the perspective shift of going outside and accomplishing things. Travel does it too. 🧳. I love travel, it gives us new perspective on life. I’d travel everyday if I could. But even chores on the town or going to work can suffice. Have wonder
