Wisdom is an organized life

"Science is organized knowledge.  Wisdom is organized life."  Immanuel Kant

You can learn and organize knowledge in science but you must have wisdom to organize your life.  We only obtain the wisdom from life by experience.  We know not to touch something hot for it will burn us.  We know certain relationships are bad for us so we avoid them or terminate them.  We try to organize our life for minimum exposure to harmful things while maximizing our pleasurable experiences.

We try to declutter our house, office and automobile and try to declutter our minds.  We do all of this because we know we function better when things and thoughts are organized.  Our lives become organized and we are wiser for knowing what to retain and what to let go of.  By learning this we learn wisdom in thoughts, words, and actions.  We learn the wisdom of wise choices by the experience of what works for us and what does not work for us.  We become wise each and every time we make a decision.  We test our hypothesis and try it.  If it works for us we keep it as a guideline.  If it doesn't we try not to do it again.

Gradually we have learned organized wisdom and organized wisdom is an organized life.  We can think clearly and distinctly and life does not become a cluttered, non-thinking way of living.

We no longer feel the negative energy; instead we feel the positive energy and feel vibrantly alive waiting for more positive opportunities in our lives.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Today I will organize my positive thoughts and store them as wisdom learned so that I have them for now and future use.
