Wisdom
Wisdom is a quality revered by most but possessed and understood by few. There is a quality to wisdom that makes it seemingly impossible to capture in concrete terms. In my experience, most can provide a laundry list of good and exceptional qualities that characterize it but to capture wisdom in a sentence seems to elude even the most articulate. Even Merriam-Webster Online failed to define it, two out of its three times, without the word wise in its definition. The one that didn’t use it was the following four-part definition: a : accumulated philosophic or scientific learning: knowledge b : ability to discern inner qualities and relationships : insight c : good sense : judgment d : generally accepted belief <challenges what has become accepted wisdom among many historians — Robert Darnton>
I would agree that this definition seems pretty all encompassing but these dry definitions fail to capture what is most human about the concept of wisdom . Here are some of my thoughts. The reason for this quandary of articulation lies within the loss that comes from modernity. As we zip through time and space, with concerns about the economy, deadlines, and relationships ever increasing in complexity, we are forced to leave behind bits and pieces of that which made us human and discriminately compartmentalize the world around us.
