Wisdom →
The Wisdom Project was inspired by the idea that one of the greatest gifts one generation can pass to another is the wisdom it has gained from experience. The project seeks to create a record of what wisdom means to a multicultural group of people who have all made their mark on the world.
Note: Wisdom is an ongoing project.

Do you carry too much baggage?
A monk and his novice were walking through the forest. They come to a stream. On the bank there was a beautifully dressed woman, crying. The monks asked her what was the matter. “I am on my way to a wedding. I have to cross the stream to get there, but the bridge has been washed away. I was searching for a place to cross where I wouldn’t ruin the dress, but I can’t find...

Uplifting Poem : Winds of Fate by Ella...
One ship drives East, and another drives West, With the self-same winds that blow; Tis the set of the sails, and not the gales, Which tells us the way to go. Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate, As we voyage along through life; Tis the set of the soul that decides its goal, And not the calm or the strife. -Ella Wheeler-Wilcox

Uplifting Poem: "Invictus" by William Ernest...
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me...

Uplifting Poem: "If" by Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you But make allowance for their doubting too, If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise: If you can dream—and...
