Wisdom is a Girl and I'm a Fool.

I dunno, perhaps is if I hadn't been so foolish in the begining, I would still have a little clout. I'm not saying I am a total fool, just sort of stupid. I suppose wisdom comes with age and a 32 year old who hasen't experienced much life out side the box can only be so wise.
I beleive in the trinity of Jesus Christ so that's a big plus, some people don't and there wisdom is proved futile in death. I make a fool out of myself and some people think I'm this monster. Really monsters have feelings too, and I can't expect some girl to just jump in my lap after all I am not a very good looking monster. I guess what I'm saying is that I want to be wise. I just keep falling into the pit of idiodacy and noone wants to help me out.

Anyone got a rope ladder??

Read as much as you can about as many topics as you can. Talk to as many people as you can. Ask questions, ask question, ask questions! Then listen.

If you want to experience new horizons, you have to lose sight of the shore.

I don't have alot of wisdom-ly nuggets. The best I can tell you is to think BEFORE you speak, keep your heart open to new thoughts and ideas, accept the consequences when you fuck up with as much grace as possible, stand up for what you believe is right against all odds.

It's rough out here. Always know where your towel is, and DON'T PANIC!

If you can see an action causing you trouble in the future, don't commit the act unless your conscience obliges you to.
Never go against your conscience - as Martin Luther said (putting himself at great risk at the time), "to go against conscience is neither wise nor safe."
But don't knowingly do anything you know is going to cause you problems if you don't have to. (I'm well aware that this requires a measure of wisdom to begin with )
Hang in there, bro. Us monsters got to stick together.

Whenever you face a similar situation as you have encountered in past think before you act, think of that very situation and things you thought would have turned the things around. Do today what you could not do then.

Remember your past but Do not repeat your mistakes from past

This seems nutty. Wisdom is a girl?

10 demerits for faulty metaphor.

However, I agree with your premise that monsters have feelings.

We certainly do.

Wisdom is a girl.
Men seek her out, even chase her, but although some get a taste, they can never totally master her.

And she's usually only palatable to the unwashed masses when she's varnished and diminished.

Ta-daaaaaaa!

Wisdom is a girl in my kid's class. She has siblings called Moonbeam, Sigma-pi, Satellite and Project and has no concept of personal grooming.
