Synopsis:
This poem explores the meaning of wisdom
꧁-~-꧂
Wisdom is not only knowledge but a way of knowing
not only a talent but a way of doing
Wisdom arises from experience, reflection and passion,
from insights and deep understanding
from the abilities to engage in dialogues
and widen our consciousness to understand oneself
while we engage with the world
Wisdom brings together past, present and futures
Wisdom is sensible and sensitive
aware of uncertainty
in contact with compassion and love
Good judgement
Wisdom is magnificent and down-to-earth
a communal well from which we all could drink
