Day 1 - Finding Wisdom and Understanding
















Happiness is ...

It is said that happiness begins with wisdom and understanding.
In other words, happiness and wisdom are traveling companions.
The acquisition of wisdom is seldom easy and quick.
Obstacles are often encountered along the way to attain happiness.

Wisdom is not like a mushroom, which can spring up overnight.
It is, instead, like an oak tree that starts as a tiny acorn, grow into
a sapling, and eventually reaches up to the sky, tall and strong.

Sometimes, people can lose perspective amid the demands of daily life.
Life may seem out of balance, and the pressure of everyday living may seem overhelming. What’s needed is a fresh perspective, a restored sense of balance and not forgetting wisdom.
It's all about finding a balance in life to make us a happier person.

Quote(s) about wisdom :
Knowledge is horizontal. Wisdom is vertical;
It comes down from above.
- Billy Graham -

No one is truly happy if he/she has what he/she wants,
But only if he/she wants something he/she should have
- St. Augustine -
