Education And Wisdom

Education, the light of one’s life,

The path to success and wisdom.

Wisdom, the ultimate destination,

The destination to a worthy life.

Though education is easy to attain,

much of the time.

But wisdom is not bound by education.

Wisdom is complete,

and education just a half.

The half of a circle,

the circle of life, of enlightenment.

Both are crucial, both are tragic,

and both priceless in ways.

Where education is the key to success,

wisdom is the lock itself.

Incomplete without each other

they strive to be together.

Knowledge lets one know what is needed to be done next.

But how to do it with compassion and simplicity

is known by just wisdom.

One needs to be educated

but he needs to have wisdom too.

Education lifts one up,

wisdom holds him there.

An educated man with strong virtues and wisdom,

is worth all the treasures of gold.

Yes, education wins the heart,

and wisdom wins the soul.

And together when they stand,

they tend to win the world.
