the fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom . What is wisdom ? I read somewhere - wisdom is the ability to execute the right thing at the right place at the right time, but i prefer wisdom is the ability to make the right judgements at the right time, avoiding the pitfalls , and gauging the matter at the back of your hand ,
In this world today , many people are doing things that unknowingly that got pain and regrets , maybe i should say this wisdom is the safety net that protects you from hurts ,regrets , .'it prevents you from doing things that hurts you. "Is wisdom philosophical ? " Can you assess wisdom?" well i guess not, it will only show how much you can handle undera crisis ? it's like your lifejacket , it will only come in handy in during aircrashes. but it's our responsibility to keep it clean with air . It is like an axe, it helps you to chop down obstacles in life, .
Next how to get wisdom ? how to get wisdom , it comes through work , your own work, your self-evaluation , what applies for you maybe nt be applicable to others . Does it comes through experiences ? maybe , maybe not? For me , i learnt through other experiences , but my own experiences are the greatest lessons taught , . Does it hurt , yes pain, stupidity, maybe that's where you learnt wise.
C.S Lewis once said the moment you think you are better than others , you have a problem of pride , " I think i know this he doesn't know", I have more money than him, I think i can do better than him, " . Many times our questions towards people sometimes it's just simply assessing others and i know i am under the scrutiny of others? Jr please be secure , I am .
Back to wisdom , it's the most powerful tool for your life, my success is built on other ppl success , if ppl are successful i am successful , empowering others is the same means as empowering yourself.
Hmm my personal nviction is , what i learnt or experienced i tend to release it fully , no holds ba to that extent , i will not rehold, held back i will go all out to protect it even it costs my hurt, . my personal belief is i won't want another person to experience the same pain i had, i won't want to protect him.
you may ask , if he won't experience it he won't learn , but i believe if it's possible i won't protect him. but i would give my piece of advice to help him ,seeing a person going through the same thing and getting that kind of nonsense is unbearable for me, Jesus and his disciples leh? i'm sure Jesus will not want his disciples to feel the pain , however Jesus suffered , likewise , we like suffered too. "not my will but yours be done" Even the savior suffered , are we greater than him?
" now you understand how i feel" i guessed each and evry one and a set of sufferings to go through , lol , not " Journey To the west " i think he won't wants us to get hurt , but through each ordeal every trial there's glory behind it , and we comes out victorious and I believe that Jesus is the greatest cheerleader of your life , because he gave up his life so that you could run and finish it.
