Savoring Wisdom

Wisdom is

a slow-ripening fruit 

that ,

alas, few of us would ever be blessed 

to 

have the unique privilege 

as 

to savor its divine flavor!

Only with age and acceptance will we come anywhere near to experienceing its divine flavour. Wise words indeed. Hope you're well now Demetrios. Tom

Thank you my dearest friend, Tom! Your comments are always sound and graceful! Unfortunately , wisdom today is not appreciated! Ignorance is rewarded instead . This we see everywhere from the simple tings, to the very complex. People who do not deserve recognition because of ignorance, they get the most credits ! Thank you!
