Wisdom is not of the order of the sum
But of the remainder..
It is what is discovered when the opacifying, inactivating layers of acquisition disintegrate.
This is why wisdom is more readily observed in older people.
They have lost, often in spite of themselves, that is to say they would have wished it to be otherwise, the attributes that made its emergence impossible.
Sometimes, however, wisdom illuminates brightly from the heart of a young person’s being and the latter naturally manages to enter into a relationship with this dimension of wisdom.
So, the added layers do not find a lasting ground allowing their installation even if they took place, such a person, with a breath, I can dissolve them, fan them.

Wisdom is in the gaps, the voids, that give meaning to all they surround.

Music in silence,
Words in blanks
Creativity in idleness
Creation in contemplation (?)

There is no music without silence. Letters and words would be incomprehensible without blanks. Idleness can prove remarkably creative, affording space for contemplation.

Yes…the overactive feature in our contemporary environment( work, family, movies…the archetypal figure of which would be the American business man that everyone is trying to mimic nowadays with their focused look and nervous typing on smartphones) leaves me very suspicious.
Is is more about communication (to others and self) than about productivity.
