What is wisdom? If someone has knowledge of the future, they are a seer or prophet If someone has knowledge of the past, they are a historian, or have memories If one has knowledge of that which is not perceptible, they are a clairvoyant If instead they have knowledge of reality, they may be a scientist, or said to be informed But what is left for wisdom? One with self-knowledge is enlightened, of the present is aware, of others-empathetic What if wisdom is nothing at all, but all of the above? When knowledge holds true — wise When fails — foolish
