On Wisdom

Wisdom. Tricky.

Some people are so interested in ideas, new ideas, new thoughts, new music. They want to see the world and learn everything.
I used to be like that. My best-friend called me Freshy then, because I was *fresh*.

I'm not that fresh anymore because it's only wise not to want too much, it's only wise to let life give you what it wants to give you *when* it wants to give you. No rushing is wise.

Wise people seldom know that they're wise people. Some people who have some wisdom act wise but are, in fact, acting wiser than they actually are.

And like that, I see lots of people advising others, and trying to show them the right path. I definitely cannot deny that I myself do a bit of that. I can't stand watching when someone's about to drink soup I know is too hot for a tongue to endure. Sometimes I don't take into consideration the fact that different people react differently to their surroundings. One thing, though, I rarely advise, or warn anyone out of confidence in *me*, or lesser confidence in them.

And I discover:
Just let it take you, OK? Just let it take you and only live day by day.

i no longer seem to know how to do the day by day!! i am not sure i even knew how.

i am always waiting for whatever's next! or worrying... or just want a way out of the 'now'!
