ARE YOU WISE OR DO YOU JUST KNOW STUFF? What is wisdom? As humans we are bound by an innate need to constantly move forward in our soul’s growth. Just as the salmon are urged to move upstream to create new life, so we are compelled by forces beyond our selves. For some this is a conscious need, for others it lingers deep in their subconscious. Even so, it is just as moving and compelling and draws to us experience after experience. Do we learn from our experiences or do we doom ourselves to repeat the same lessons over and over? This compelling may lead some to attend course after course or read book after book in their quest to awaken and to figure out the great cosmos within and outside their selves. Accumulated knowledge does not make you wise. Wisdom comes from practicing the knowledge that you know to be true. Not because someone has told you so, but because it resonates in the deepest part of your being. Wisdom is revealed in embracing and expressing the knowledge that you have gathered, and in your actions toward others and yourself. Wisdom comes in making time each day to practice the art of sacred space. In truth, Wisdom is the sacred expression of knowledge. Blessings, Kate
