Nice one Demetrios! Such an ability would save one from many heartaches and certainly change his world view. Well penned!

Dear Andrea, Yes, that's what I want to say. Thank you so much for the comment, however, I will add: Pearls of wisdom foolishly spelled! I am grateful !

Thanks for your visit, unfortunately I do not speak French. I do however appreciate the gesture. My Grandfather was the last generation to speak French. Feel free too drop by again. Have a good evening Demetrios.

Wisdom, is what I wish I had. Some say that you gain wisdom by reading books and education, others say you are born with it. others say that you gain it with age. Who is right? Thanks for sharing. Lucilla

All of the above! However we shouldn't be confused. We have to use its one at the right time and in the right way and at the right quantity.

We live in a world where wisdom is considered foolishness and we head downward in a spiral of stupidity. It's nice to see that some are still in search of wisdom.
