Information is mental. Wisdom is heart centered. While information is useful, wisdom is essential. One side of the bank is information, and the other side is wisdom. In the middle, where they meet, is the river. The river can be chaotic and dangerous if one ones leads his life with judgment rather than discernment. This alone, the ability to choose, is what determines which side of the bank one will dwell. All need the water. Some will only tip their toe within the flow. Some will wade. Others will swim with the current. All are choices. The substance from which one draws determines the choice. Where do you dwell? Are you a toe dipper, a wader, or a swimmer?
