Thursday, March 22nd, 2007Will & Wisdom …. don’t you think those two are the most important thing to live life? For as long as the heart is still beating, I think everyone still have choices. It takes wisdom to pick the best out of them, and it takes will to follow it through.
Forgiveness, patience, faith, and anything else that I can think of, are some form of wisdom and will. Every second of my life, I have the choices to forgive or to have revenge, to be patience or to be mad, to be faithful or to cheat, and all other choices at every second of my life. It takes wisdom to pick the ones best for me, and it takes will to actually do it. I do not claim to have wisdom, though I should have at least some experience of my previous choices and consequences to based my choice on, which somewhat is a form of very basic wisdom, I think :P.
What about love? A priest once said love is a choice. You don’t wake up in the morning feeling in love, it’s a conscious decision that you make every second and you do it. I guess one would argue, what does a priest know about love. Well, isn’t it a lot? It’s easier for us to love someone or something that we can actually sense with our senses, right? Compared that to the the love to God, that you just have to believe exist and have faith on. Isn’t that more incredible than humanly love? Well, at least I think it is, to be so unconditionally decide to love for the rest of his life. So, take your wisdom to choose who or what to love, and take your will to love.
Perhaps it’s just a naive way looking at life, and it certainly is just personal point of view. Perhaps I know nothing of a lot of thing, but I still think those are the most important things in life, at least in mine ….. well … for the moment anyway. What works for you? You decide ^_^
