Cherish your Stupidity

If you feel stupid, you should cherish that feeling. You are growing up. There are no shortcuts to intelligence. Heck I don't know what intelligence is, but whenever I feel that I'm stupid or I have been stupid, I feel less stupid. There is a word play here. Intelligent, wise, knowledgeable: different people might interpret the meanings differently. I cant draw the lines. People with good IQ or people with the ability solve maths are not necessarily intelligent or wise. I don't know the right word anyway. So does people who passes exams with flying colors, getting through to posh universities, doing fancy jobs, with superior language skills. Becoming wise (not Enlightened) is not a destination. It's a journey. Most importantly, wisdom without compassion never takes off.
