Too late in life, we acquire wisdom when it is sometimes beyond our ability to deploy though we will appreciate it greatly.
Here is a traditional litany of how wisdom is conveyed upon us:
Wisdom is the product of the application of sound judgement over a protracted period of time.
Sound judgment is the product of pertinent experience over a long time.
Pertinent experience is the product of blinding instants of bad judgement.
We strivers are Heaven bent on securing wealth and wisdom. No or yes?

So, here it is — in the game of life, there is nothing wrong with accumulating wealth, wisdom. We are supposed to do just that. With me so far?
What is also true is that we are supposed to share it thereafter. That’s it. All there is. Right there.
First, we accumulate wealth and wisdom.
Then, we share it with our families and the world.
There is a brand of wisdom that is only found early in the morning at Waffle House. It’s called Waffle House Wisdom.
