 17. Wisdom and Learning Disabilities by Susan Kramer


Wisdom comes from making the effort to learn from every action. If we analyze and apply these lessons in succeeding times a best choice comes more easily. Wisdom provides a wise dome. The dome covers us with a shield against wrong action. When wisdom is achieved, the right easeful way seems the natural way.

We can help our children with learning disabilities acquire wisdom by pointing out another way to work out a situation that went wrong.

A way to project wisdom right now is to have caring feelings for all people and the creation. When we act from our heart, we do what is best for all. When our mind is clouded by selfishness we cannot make the best decision. When we act from care we are doing only good.

Ultimately we attain and begin living in wisdom, our lives becoming easeful, peaceful, useful and happy. When we realize this happiness we are realizing our inner self. Happiness is a quality unaffected by time, place or circumstance. Happiness is always with us and felt when we act in harmony with people and the environment.

Our children may not be full grown and have some disabilities, but they can still learn from their mistakes, at least what not to repeat. I've found with my own kids that reinforcing good choices with praise helps them continue to pick wise choices out in the world. After all, we do have choices and it is wise to pick what is most right, because inner peace and harmony is maintained, with nothing to come back and haunt.
