  1. The disadvantage of staying a fool is that you stay a...


  2. but as a wise person, you can learn to deal wih your past foolishness :)

  3. Somehow you are right.

  4. Yes, knowledge comes, but Wisdom lingers.

  5. Teenagers are a excellent example of this. From age 13 - 18 they are going through alot of changes and think they are invincible and know it all and are ready to tackle the world head on. Then they get into their 20's and realize that mom and dad actually knew what they were talking about and they were not quite as wise as they once thought. This saying is a excellent example of the human learning process. Good ?

  6. If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.

    When the pupil is ready, the teacher will come.

  7. Absolutely, and the fact you can look back and see how far you have came in learning.

  8. True, true.

    But even stupid people look back and see they've been stupid - I'm sure everyone does.

    So surely it's better to be wise and look back on your stupidity than to still be as stupid as you were.

    At least if you're wise, you know you're better than you were when you were foolish.

    And you can outsmart people =D

  9. Agree.  If only I knew 10 years ago what I know now ... namely that mum is always right.

  10. Sounds like lifes experiences...isn't that what life is about?

  11. So, I have had it right all along. Ignorance is bliss!

  12. Wisdom comes from perspective so allowances for conduct, cynical work environment, sincerity went out of the window but you were on my mind, demonstrates that my heart was in the right place.

    Later:

         ?      (angrily)

    What did I just say?

    Putting pressure on someone does not assist recall.

  13. I will agreed with this article and I will tell you why!!. If you are amongst Ignorant people who do not know what you are saying

    and you are trying to explain to them, He, or She, some time

    you can look and or sound not just foolished but stupid so personally I keep away from people or person who are debatable slow, so I know directly what this writer mean. Even some times I feel like that in this house AKA on this site ,but it's OK. some times !!!!. I hope this gets before the public.

  14. thanks for the new myspace headline... lol

  15. that totally describes my life in some odd way

  16. Yes but wisdom come with age as does memory loss so you don't really remember how foolish you were

  17. sounds wise!

  18. you know a person can be smart on his profession but in others not..........like for example a teacher is smart in teaching but when you put her in a sugery she cannot perform like she is teaching cause its not her profession............YOU MAY BE INTELLIGENT BUT STILL IN OTHER ASPECTS YOU ARE A FOOL.................no one can do everything and anything...............
