We all want to be the expert at something, we all want to be right and make sure that others know it, but if we have to try and convince people of the wisdom of our opinions is that really wisdom, or just showing off?
With time comes wisdom; wisdom is not decided by argument or debate. The practice of your statement, throughout the years, is what proves its validity. The word of God has been tested through years and years of nay-sayers, and has ultimately been proven correct, whereas trends in Philosophy and Psychology come and go.
Wisdom is not, knowing everything, it's about knowing what's right and whats wrong. Its about stating our opinions or facts with a humble heart, not a conceited mind, with the ability to accept criticism and ask forgiveness if we are proven incorrect.
So, the next time you think you know something, don't go around pounding your chest like you are God's gift to knowledge…Think about what you have learned, and how you want to express yourself.
