How Does One Become Wise?
01:06:2018
How does one become wise?
Surely not by telling lies.
An intelligent men asks questions.
Adds the answers to his life’s lessons.
A foolish man rambles on and on and on.
Like a turkey wishing he had the mockingbird’s song.
The moment you utter untruths.
Know, those around you are not fools.
They will see through your words.
That you so foolishly splurge.
For once, be silent.
The surprise might just be pleasant.
Wisdom is a path traveled.
Not thought that have unraveled.
Remember an empty vessel make the loudest noise.
And can’t hold its false intelligent poise.
