Troll Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 16 minutes ago, Wildcat Will said: I am reflecting on this conversation and it's content. Without a doubt, there is a shortage, or lack of understanding. We must admit when we don't know, what we think we know, in order to learn what we don't know. When you only know what you know, there is much to learn. When you know what others know, you become learned. Knowledge will never become wisdom without application. Sounds good but knowledge is not truth (or wisdom as you pointed out). Many learn the ‘knowledge’ of how to do some things the wrong way. As in, knowledge does not equal ‘correct’..... especially when taken from others. And wisdom comes from within...as it can not be taught.

The process of application is essential to knowledge becoming wisdom. This is a natural progression. Thru application, the lesson of right and wrong is discovered. Allowing for this eventuality, one expects to be educated, no longer in wonder concerning said subject or topic. Wisdom is achieved thru living and taking in all sides of the issue, discriminating that info, applying that info in a practical sense, most commonly, one's life.
