Hello, I would like to open a pondering on the wisdom:
Wisdom oft cometh from the mouth of babes

In basic terms, this wisdom means 'Children, namely, babes, often speak wisdom.'

Perhaps the stark contrast between the worries and business of children and grown ups can cause wisdom to become greatly hidden away to one who plays on the many troubles of life.

Children can access wisdom through 'the eyes of babes' which see but the simple facets of the enjoyment of living.

What is your opinion on this wisdom? Children such as yourself can add to the wisdom through your wisdom.

This is true. Children oft see things as they are, without the distortion of adult biased thinking. I agree with this concept. It's hard to grasp and accept as an adult because adults don't always want to admit they're wrong. I often think about this when my little cousins say odd things.

Quite so, this is indeed wisdom. Your example of your cousins is a perfect demonstration of the mind of a babe.

Maybe they only say odd things because they are odd.

Very true Lion. Not all adults can be right everytime. Nobody can be right all the time some people can be right some can be wrong. Well Damen I don't understand some of this but it is very true. Children can go for a bright future of happiness and love. +1 ~Starwolf~

I disagree. my point was, It was odd to ME because I did not understand it. But that does not mean they're wrong.

This could be positive in a way, but it means omens too. A baby would see a hole as a big round circle, and crawl right in it.

True Adawg life ends quickly you need to make the most of it while you can which I am sure everyone is doing right. Now because life always ends quickly soon you will regret not doing some things and want to relive what you did wrong. ~Live life to the fullest before it ends~ ~Starwolf~

Well, Emperor Damen, I think I have wisdom myself, in school and other places.
Oftenly, I speak words of an adult, I act like one too.
This means, your sort of overtaking the wisdom of adults, even though kids stereotypically cannot do that.

Just remember, Children are today, Adults are tomorrow...
