Today's Moment...

August 3

Wisdom comes by way of experience, but it only results when you have internalized and applied that experience to future ones.

Just because one is old, does not mean one is wise. By the same rule, just because one is young, does not mean one is not wise. You can be an old fool just as easily as you can be a young one: the definition of insanity in some circles is to repeat the same behavior, expecting different results.
Wisdom cannot be measured by the years one has lived, but by the quality of those years, the experiences gained, and whether or not one has applied what they were fortunate enough to learn.

Moment by moment, I will try to learn the lessons my life has to teach, and will hopefully become wise in my own right.
