The Wisdom of a Child
Is there any wit and wisdom
flowing from the mouth of a
four-year-old child that can
possibly be trumped by that
of an elderly sage? Not too likely,
for the impetuosity of a child's
unique discoveries and the
sagacious interpretation of a
precocious sprite exudes a
freshness of perspective and
realization lost on the gnarled
and wearied experience of the old.
There is not an iota of contest
between the tabula rasa rapidly
gorging itself with impressions and
rare discoveries and the wired map
of the continental brain of the
ennui-burdened of mature sobriety.
