This is a quote that i find very fitting. Most of the people that have or continue to inspire me, have been learned but gained far more knowlegde from their experiences. You can read all the books, and articles you want but there is no better way of learning then the hands on approach. That statement at least rings true for me. You do not need a degree to prove your intellegence to me, it is how you handle that things life and God throws your way, and what you have gone through to get that degree that means something to me. I have to say that the most experienced person in my life, is my grandmother, who is a very intellegent women, who never graduated high school. so is by no means identified by the term learned, or at least how we see it. To me she is a very learned person because of her experiences. In the end, It isn't the destination that matters, it's about the journey.
amen, sister. it's the same--in my opinion--as the difference between those who walk the walk and those who simply talk the talk.
ReplyDeletepersonally i think i walk too much tho and don't pause to do a little talking.
