It's true that the future is only opaque if you let it. I also know that one should live in the present so the future isn't a mass priority. These are clear. These are understood. Yet, something lingers, staying under the skin. Where the luster of wisdom dies off as empty words. Then learning it wasn't wisdom, just common sense. Then what is exactly? I mean you sit and listen to the dribble of an individual, absorbing the information. At a point, connecting these bold words to your own life, adding on to something- which is more significant now then it was. Maybe, what needs to be known is that common sense is wisdom because what is wisdom without it. I guess the thesis of what I'm saying is that nothing anyone says should have the ability to change you completely. To the point of shrouding. A shift is acceptable, but letting yourself change seems unclear. Unclear as in who you are and not what you stand for. If ones unclear then the balance between the two are off. Then you live thinking these words are wise when they are common.
But, common isn't less of anything. It's the presentation that counts the most. The subtlety of it measures up to what is and what will. Maybe, that's how common sense isn't seen as wisdom because wisdom became something special and rare. Something that's sought after, never in reach unless you are of certain principles. In case, lessens individuals when the point of it all is bypassed. The point where what is of value is common. But since no one wants common, then that makes it special and rare. That's what makes wisdom common because common sense is wisdom.
In this, a shift forms because you don't learn something new, but something old. Something known, but unheard. Though a change would seem likely, it should never. Like a clock, we tick with certainty- minute after minute- and in this seconds are our common sense. Many never look at seconds, but minutes and hours. The things that are the most bypassed are common, moving you anyways. I think being appreciative of the smallest things, as fast they may come and go, would benefit anyone. Maybe, truly benefiting from common sense is what makes wisdom so valuable. What makes it so special. Isn't that what we all want though, to benefit. But, how do you benefit if you don't allow yourself to be common? How do you live honestly or at all?
