Wisdom

Wisdom

A Poem by Elisabeth Acosta

I love words of wisdom that break through the walls that surround me! They rush through my stubbornness, my pain, my self will, and all darkness. Wisdom breaking through like sharp swords. Cutting through lies that covered me like heavy weights and kept me stuck in uselessness.

I love words of wisdom that penetrate my mind, my soul and release me from the strongholds that encase me in darkness

Yes! Words of wisdom that bring light and that aha moment. Like words that melt away ignorance and fill me with a self acceptance that says it is ok to not know everything, and admit it.

Wisdom that allows me the freedom to remain teachable, humble and free from the pride that kept the world out of my heart.

"Wisdom that allows me the freedom to remain teachable, humble and free from the pride that kept the world out of my heart."
When we can't learn. We are in trouble. A wise person is willing to learn something new every day. Thank you Elisabeth for sharing the amazing poetry.

You're welcome.
The truly wise are always humble, ever mindful that they can never know it all. Well done.
