Gift of Wisdom

'There are stories all around you, even in dark, secluded places. Share your stories, mark the places where they were born. No greater gift can you give to one another.' - Hermes


Indeed, Wisdom is a wonderful boon and blessed is he who receives it. However, what happens when instead the gift is rejected? When pride, born of ignorance, has filled the heart, leaving no capacity for Wisdom?


As pearls are to pigs, the gift will become.


Woe to thee, who has eyes but do not see, ears but do not listen, and mouth but speak of no wisdom; for wisdom was never a part of thee.
