“Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one’s awareness of one’s ignorance.” ~ Anthony de Mello

If so, then I’m well on my way to becoming a very wish man. ;-)

I’ve got the ignorance. Still waiting for the wisdom, though.

That’s a great quote, especially in the context of where I happen to be at the moment. We’re visiting our son in Las Vegas and spending a little time wandering around various casinos. Since the NCAA basketball tournament just go under way, “business” at the sports books is pretty high. As is the cumulative level of “ignorance”. It’s just a horde of old, fat guys smoking cigars wondering why they’re losing.

Just thinking about how wise they’ll all be when they become aware of their own ignorance is mind-boggling……….
