Day #230 - Make your circumstances.

SMOERs: Words of Wisdom

"People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are.  I don't believe in circumstances.  The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them."  --George Bernard Shaw

SMOERs: Words of Wisdom

"Knowledge can be memorized. Wisdom must think things through. Wisdom is the something that enables us to use knowledge rightly. Wisdom does not climb on the bandwagon. It does not follow the crowd. Wisdom gives generously but it does not let money be taken away. Wisdom may buy but it does not let itself be 'sold.' Wisdom resists group pressures, thinks for itself, and is reconciled to the use of its own judgment." ---Anonymous

Day #174 - Seek wisdom, and if not a seeker, appreciate wisdom in others.
