For in much wisdom is much grief:
and he that increaseth knowledge
increaseth sorrow. Eccl. 1:18
I find myself thinking about this
age old gem from time to time. Not
only that, but there are times when
wisdom hurts so much that I long
to be a dumb blond, to coin a very
inappropriate phrase!
It's interesting how life gifts us so
many learning experiences, that the
only path left to us is to grow or die.
And trust me, there are times I wish
I had chosen death. Certainly glad
I didn't, but this marks the difficulty
of the path we choose to follow.
Recognizing that wisdom is virtually
an unattainable goal, still it must be
sought after religiously. The hope is
that one day we may acquire a bit
and have the joy of sharing it with
our children and grandchildren.
pray grant me wisdom
the path is so very hard
a race to be run
