Words of Wisdom

I'm sitting here totally brain dead and in a CFS fog this morning. I'm not sure I could tell anyone the name of my children let alone how to save on groceries but as I am sitting here with my eyes glazed over I did manage to focus on a little saying that I have on my desk that I really like and would like to share it with you. You can apply these words to any area of your life, whether it is dealing with your money, cooking for your family, cleaning your home or on your job. I hope you like them.

Wisdom is knowing what to do next.
Skill is knowing how to do it.
Virtue is doing it.

It's amazing how all three of these work together. Anyone of these alone won't work. You have to have all three or to be working on acquiring all three. It's kind of like having a nice new car. If that car doesn't have wheels and keys, it isn't going to be of much use to you. The same goes for wisdom, without skill and virtue it is of no use. Just something to think about.

Have a good day! :) :) Jill

WOW!! Your saying just hit home for me.... I am a single mom with custody of my 4 year old granddaughter and unemployed. I was feeling really down because I haven't been able to find a job and after reading that passage it just slapped me in the face. I am getting up off this computer to take charge of SOMETHING today. Thank you so much - PS - before getting off of here I am printing this passage out to go on the fridge!!
