Wisdom

 

Pause to Ponder

What is wisdom? Far more than the information our brain is constantly accumulating, wisdom is recognized by our entire being, aligning us with timeless truths that help us live with more confidence, peace and purpose. I found the following description of wisdom by Yung Pueblo beautiful, so I wanted to share it with you.

 
 

wisdom is not loud
nor does it whisper

it is a resonance
that realigns you with a better direction
it is a knowing that arises with undeniable clarity
it is an expansion that makes the mind lighter

wisdom is gradual,
often showing you the same truth
but from different angles,
until it finally clicks so deeply
that it becomes part of your being

as the wisdom within you matures,
it becomes easier to let go,
to stop fighting yourself,
and to move with nature instead of against it

—Yung Pueblo, from The Way Forward.
