Bible Verse:
Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou [art] God. 

Psalms 90:2


When I was a kid and I saw my first Chinese kung fu movies, I had noticed how even the most awesomest ninja master always respected their old but ever-wise Sensei. I then wanted to become ultra wise, to be respected by even the president of America. Then I realized that I couldn't become wise, because I didn't even know what it was. And ever since, I dedicated my life to figuring it out. Now, after much search, hard work, and dedication, I have developed an answer to the age old question, "What is the difference between Wisdom and Intelligence".

Intelligence:

The way the Intelligent work is that whenever they appear in a situation, they have been prepared beforehand due to notable personal experiences.  The way they seem is so fluid because they know the subject so well, or think they do.  They are ready for only certain situations because whenever they come to a situation in which they know very little of, they appear to be dumb, aka "blonde moments".

Wisdom:

The Wise, are open-minded and are capable to quickly adapt to unexpectedness. They will be more hesitant to doing things because they can create so many possibilities, some good and others horrific.  It is what develops into creativity. What cannot be seen, can then be imagined.

Enlightenment:
When a person is both, they then become enlightened.  But one cannot be Enlightened with low intelligence and high Wisdom, nor vise versa.  A balance of both is needed.  When one is balanced, the level of Enlightenment is only as strong as your surroundings.
Ex. If you're raised by wolfs, once enlightened, you become a wolf expert.  If you're raised by royalty, you become a royalty expert.  The level of enlightenment corresponds to what you make of your surroundings.  (But our surroundings are as limited as we make them.)

Now that I figured out that I need more than just wisdom to be as cool as the grand master sensei ninja s, I decided that I now want to be enlightened.  Not that I'm not, but my surroundings had been limited to things revolving around my own life.

- Juan E. Casas              .

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”

Bible verse:
If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again. If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him. 

Exodus 23:4-5




A few weeks ago a got a new car. It's not actually off the lot, it's a 2000, it's just new to me....you get the point. When I bought it, it didn't come without a stereo. My car's dash has a big square hole on it big enough to fit a midget wrestler. Although... I could easily avoid the cosmetic disaster by simply keeping my eyes on the road, like I should.  But then again, I am a fairly active commuter, I have a full time job to keep and full time college hours to keep a 2.0 GPA on.  The road is just awful to listen to.  I need more music in my life!! Or do I?... You see, I actually have the car's original stereo in my trunk. But I haven't made the time to arrange something up to see if it works. I haven't moved a thumb in that direction.  Maybe it's because I like to have some highly intellectual alone time with my conscious.  Or maybe that's the time I use to clear my head so that nothing is in mind at work and/or school. lol It probably has more to do with keeping an ear on whatever sounds my car makes. It these short few weeks, it has broken down twice on me... lol.  Nevertheless, I love my car. :)

I'll assume you imagine my Focus with conditions not as pristine as this one... lol

Have you guys heard the saying "The only thing that changes is change?" For all of you who haven't, I am glad to be the one to show it to you.  I mean, put some real thought into it.  Everything is in a constant state of change, at all times, everything is always in a flux. Doesn't that mean that if everything changes, it becomes something else? That would only make sense if the change was large enough for humans to give a care about. So instead of changing the name of the thing in change, we give it an identity, and separate the variable "change" so that the identity is the one who "changes". Don't give an identity to anything. Change isn't a variable, it's part of the identity. Everything changes, everything is changing right now, as you read.  You're not who you use to be about 3 seconds ago. 

When I was a kid, I was very spoiled. My parents loved game rooms and places as such.  So every special occasion our family would take us to Super Track or Chuck E. Cheese.  I wasn't the kid who wanted to maximize their ticket collection by playing the games I was best at the most. I liked to play every single game multiple times. Even though I sucked at most of them, I had a blast experiencing new things and knowing my strengths and weaknesses.  After I had ran out of tokens, I looked around the game room to give the "Nod of Affirmation" to all of the games/machines, my worthy opponents.  Then, the cherry on top, I would cash in all I tickets earned and get me cute little toys that would magically disappear once I stepped out. Them were the days. :)

Well thanks for reading guys I hope you each find a lesson to be learned in each section. Don't hesitate to comment/rant/complain/argue/converse/debate about anything I've written. It's free. :)
