Let the wise man not boast of his wisdom, but rather of knowing the Lord.

This is what we should pass on to our children.

 

🇪🇸

No se gloríe el sabio de su sabiduría, sino gloríese de conocer al Señor.

Eso es lo que deberías transmitir a los niños.

 

🇩🇪

Der Weise rühme sich nicht seiner Weisheit, sondern er rühme sich den Herrn zu kennen.

Das ist es was man den Kindern weiter geben soll.

 

"Stupidity is not knowing a little.

Nor is wanting to know a little. Stupidity is believing you know enough."

- Confucius -

One by one our lights go on and never dim again

Wisdom is supreme; therefore make a full effort to get wisdom.

Esteem her and she will exalt you; embrace her and she will honor you.

The ability to love, is a blessing. 能付出愛心,就是福。

The ability to eliminate afflictions, is wisdom. 能消除煩惱,就是慧。

We are told wisdom comes with age

But I believe wisdom comes from….

Pain, hardship, loss, sadness, joy, happiness, good times

We must have at least some of these things in our life at some point

To not only have wisdom

But to also have compassion, empathy

For without good and hard times in our life

We can learn nothing.

If we only have good and happy

How can we ever understand

Sadness, loss and pain when we ourselves have never experienced it

And if we only ever have

Bad, pain and loss

How can we ever understand

Joy, love and happiness

if we have never experienced it

Without a portion of each emotion we are only half of what we are meant to be

What are we meant to be?

Wiser I hope,

filled with compassion, empathy, kindness, helpfulness, understanding, caring, and joy

Filled with the wisdom of what it is....... to truly Love

And know what Love means

What are we meant to be?

Better than what we have become

"‘NCOPP’ ‘O SCOGLIO"

(Poesia letta all'assemblea delle Nazioni Unite a New York)

 

Che strana cosa ch' è sta pecundrìa

‘o core int’ 'a na roccia ‘mpriggiunato,

cerca ‘e se libberà 'e sta malatia,

ma nun 'a tene 'a forza , è scunsulato.

 

‘Ncopp’ a stu scoglio va sbattenno ll’onna

ca vene a se 'mbruglia' comme 'e penziere,

sta scumma janca ll'anema me ‘nfonne,

me parla comme fa na cunsigliera.

 

E m'accumpagna chesta voce 'e mare

ca chianu chianu ‘a capa m’ha acquitato,

facennome scurda' tutto ll’amaro

ca dint’ ‘o core mio steva astipato.

 

di Carmen Auletta

"ON THE ROCK"

(Poem has been read at ONU in New York)

 

How strange is this melancholy,

the heart, imprisoned into a rock,

tries to get rid of this sickness,

but has no strength, it's uncomforted

 

The wave dashes on this rock,

it comes and fades in as the thoughts do,

this white foam wets my soul,

talks to me as a counselor does

 

And with me is this voice of the sea

that calmed me little by little,

making me leave behind all the bitterness

that was preserved into my heart.

I see some great colors as I do the images I do. But some how it always feels like wisdom is flying around in the colors here.

Father and son collaboration

 

Our photographic art is a kinetic motion study, from the results of interacting with my son A.J and his toys.

 

He was born severely handicapped much like a quadriplegic. On December 17,1998. Our family’s goal has always been to help A.J. use his mind, even though he has minimal use of his body.

 

A.J. likes to watch lights and movement. One of the few things he can do for himself is to operate a switch that sets in motion lights and various shiny, colorful streamers and toys that swirl above his bed.

 

One day I took a picture of A.J. with his toys flying out from the big mobile near his bed like swings on a carnival ride. I liked the way the swirling objects and colors looked in the photo.

 

I wanted to study the motion more and photograph the whirling objects in an artful way, I wanted my son A.J. to be a part of it. After all, he’s the one who inspires me. When A.J. and I work together on our motion artwork, A.J. starts his streamers and objects twirling, I take the photographs.

 

Activating a tiny switch might not seem like much to some, but it’s all A.J. can do. He controls the direction the mobile will spin, as well as when it starts and stops. The shutter speeds are long, and sometimes, I move the camera and other times I hold it still.

 

I begin our creation with a Nikon digital camera. Then I use my computer with Photoshop to alter the images into what I feel might be an artistic way. Working with Photoshop, I find the best parts from several images and combine them into the final composite photograph. I consider the finished work to be fine art. The computer is just the vehicle that helps my expressions grow.

 

I take the photographs and A.J. adds the magic. It’s something this father and son do together. After I’ve taken a few shots, I show him the photos in the back of the camera. When the images are completed, I show him from a laptop. He just looks. He can’t tell me whether or not he likes the images, but he’s always ready to work with me again.

 

It offers me my only glance into A.J.’s secret world. We’ve built a large collection of images and I hope the motion and color move you as much as they do me.

 

A.J. inspires me to work harder to understand my life in the areas of art, photography, people, spirituality, and so much more. He truly sets my mind in motion and helps me find the beauty in everyday things.

Bearing band number 7333, "Wisdom" is the oldest known wild bird in the Northern Hemisphere at 60+ years old. She hadn't been seen since before the tsunami, but returned to her chick at the end of the day on Sunday.

Every day I try to seek #Wisdom in contemplation, meditation, study, and silence. So this week's Flickr Friday was an easy one for me to get in touch with.
