Greetings Dear Readers;

.
Hope you are well.
.
Here's a Principle that seems rather straight forward....that is until we have a look at the words themselves. Principle;...'Patience is the companion of Wisdom.'

Let's have a look at the word 'Patience'.

Dictionary definition...Patience;..state, power, fact of being patient, forbearance.....We should look at 'Patient' as well....Patient; Bearing or enduring pains, trials, or the like without complaint or with equanimity. 2.Expectant with calmness or without discontent, also undisturbed by obstacles, delays, failures, etc.; persevering .

Let's have a look at 'Wisdom' as well.

Dictionary definition: Wisdom;...Quality of being wise...ability to judge soundly and deal sagaciously with facts, esp. as they relate to life and conduct; discernment and judgment; discretion; sagacity.

When having a look at definitions ...look for synonyms and antonyms of those words to give better understanding of the words. These definitions supplied synonyms and antonyms with the word as some do. For 'Patient'...the synonym was 'Long-Suffering and the antonyms 'Impatient, 'Rash' . For Wisdom...the synonym was 'Sense' and the antonym was 'Folly'.

Where there is Wisdom there is Patience.

For an illustration of the Principle...how about one of the characters from 'Star Wars' film series....'Yoda' himself. Both Wise and Patient indeed.

Let's give this Principle a think.....shall we.

Here there is a saying "patience is a virtue of the strong", it's something similar...

Great pictures! Love the sea

It is true that Patience is the companion of Wisdom. Not despairing in complicated situations is something that only being focused and having the necessary knowledge will help us move forward.

I need an old dictionary to look up disused medical terms. I'm studying homeopathy, and many of the old words are still in use in that field. It's been fun, really. As much trouble as words can cause, leading us to folly and impatience and away from ourselves, I love to know as many of them as I can.

There is always so much to examine in your artworks. In these I see reflections of the seascape in the skies, more apparent in the BnWs. All of them mesmerizing. Very nice!!! You almost make me want to get me an iPad.

Indeed you would enjoy both...an ancient dictionary and an iPad. ^__^

Both are a bit heavy but worth it.

I am happy to hear you are still studying homeopathy...learning is my idea of fun as well....and words ..there is no end of reward to expanding one's vocabulary.

So appreciate your kind words with regard to the photographs...happy to hear your thoughts.

Kind Regards,

Bleujay

Wisdom and patience in the same sentence seems to make a lot of sense actually. I must admit @bleujay I had not considered this before but yes if you can demonstrate the quality of patience, which we're told is a virtue, then a calmer mind prevails I would imagine. And in that calmer mental state we allow ourselves more time to think, ponder and muse.

This principle that you have brought to us in this post makes perfect sense, what a great angle on these two words.

Lovely to be reminded of the beach with your photos @bleujay, they're fantastic shots. The picture of your starfish is wonderful, a very vibrant photo.

You are too kind....What a lovely thought-full comment.

Appreciate hearing from you and your kind words regarding the photographs.

The photos in colour represent ....synonyms,...The BNWs represent...antonyms...What do you think? ^__^

I'm very curious now @bleujay as I had studied the photos, both colour and monochrome ones, but forgive me I am struggling to see this other meaning you have built into them. Would you mind elaborating?

I think it's great to use photographs in this way, to convey more meaning and perhaps a hidden meaning. So I am very curious now.

Greetings @peaceandmoney ,

Delighted to elaborate...and yes...often there is more meaning to Bleujay's photographs but not always. ^__^

For me...the photographs in colour represent synonyms because often when we hear the synonyms of a word...we quite agree...thinking oh yes...that's right....however when it comes to antonyms...we have to give it a think because it gives an entirely different perspective of the word...and we often say...oh, I had not thought of that before.

Here we have a seaside scene in colour...oh yes, we have seen that before...the sand is yellow ochre and the sky cerulean bleu...right? However when we see the seaside view in black and white...we might think..oh I had not noticed the cloud formation or the waves spillover patterns around the rocks...etc.

A very similar process in my mind to our discovery of the meaning of words...the clarification and understanding that comes not only the definition but also with the nuances provided by the synonyms and antonyms.

Hope all this makes sense.

As always enjoy the opportunity to discuss the Principle.

Toodle pip!

Thank you @bleujay for this comprehensive elucidation, I greatly appreciate it. Yes absolutely nuances can be highlighted in all sorts of ways and the distinction between colour and black and white photos is one such vivid method for exploring these nuances.

Your comment provides further food for thought that's for sure.

That is a good one for sure.

I always loved the concept of wisdom being separate from intelligence or mental agility. Wisdom can’t be attained by people of all mental statures through learning from life’s lessons which usually come from mistakes.

I initially was thinking that the statement said that patience leads to wisdom but surely it is the other way around. Wisdom has hopefully taught me that patience produces the best results, like letting bread fully bake before pulling it out of the oven.

Life lessons lead to wisdom and wisdom breeds patience as a symbiotic companion in my opinion.

Oh yes...exactly as you said...'Wisdom breeds patience as a symbiotic companion in my opinion.' Well said!

Therefore.....'Patience is a companion of Wisdom.'. What do you think? ^__^

Thank you for dropping by....Always enjoy dialoguing over the Principle.

Bleujay

Excellent photos! Such photos taken by the sea always make me feel good. As soon as I saw them, I knew they were taken with an iPhone or iPad. For me, it's the ideal device for taking photos. Unless of course you have a professional camera.

There is no wisdom without patience. It is not possible to learn something without patience. You cannot solve your problems without patience.

The principle is especially apt for these trying times!. Your shots of the seashore are calming and invite one to relax and seek wisdom from within ourselves. I like that your still life came from those same seas..beautiful!

Appreciate hearing your kind thoughts regarding the post.

See the photographs with colour versus the BNW...of the same scene...this is the visual illustration of 'Synonyms' versus 'Antonyms' in giving us a clearer understanding of a word....make sense?

Thank you for dropping by.

Have a blessed day @bleujay!

The surf in your photos motivates reflection and pleasant memories of days spent by the sea, great photos.

In part, wisdom and patience are like the surf, which gradually, unhurriedly polishes the stones in the coastal part of the beach.

In theory, wisdom should encourage a person to be patient, but the ability to be patient does not always generate wisdom.

For example, it is difficult for me to call wise someone who mocks his body lol and walks on broken glass, or hot coals, without any particular need for it, because it was not God who put them in a situation where they need to do this :)

Pozdrav, @bleujay, Vama i svim drugim aktivnim korisnicima na mreži.

Strpljenje i mudrost postavljeni su visoko na lestvici poželjnih životnih vrlina. Kod nas postoji narodna izreka koja kaže: "Strpljen - spašen".
Mudri ljudi su strpljivi. Oni će uvek sačekati razvoj situacije, izvagati sve okolnosti pre nego što odgovore izazovu ili krenu u akciju.

Strpljenje se smatra vrlinom koja nije samo genetski predodređena već se izgrađuje tokom života. Strpljivo čekati... Strpljivo čekati sa mirom u srcu, jer sve ima svoje vreme. Pravi trenutak će se pokazati. A opet, ne zaboravimo protok vremena. Gde je granica strpljenja? Da li to znaju samo oni koji zrače mudrošću?

'Patience is the companion of Wisdom.'

Da li se može smatrati univerzalnim principom? Šta mislite, da li važi kad je ljubav u pitanju? Ili prvenstveno važi za ljubav?

Hvala na predivnim fotografijama i izabranom principu, @bleujay.

We could say patience has a role to play all on its own with or without wisdom,...yet patience is most surely part of Wisdom.

Yes....this principle could be categorised as a Universal Principle.

To answer your query....most definitely in 'love'...if one has wisdom then that love is objective, patient, virtuous. Found in the Bible....A wonderful verse I Corinthians 13.4, Ephesians 4. 31,32

Appreciate your kind words about the photographs and chosen principle, thank you!

Kind Regards,

Bleujay

The sea view is picturesque and the sky is beautiful with wonderful clouds. Your photo of the shells and starfish is awesome.

I absolutely agree with your principle. I clearly understand the words "wisdom" and "patient" through your excellent explanation and I will follow your principle accordingly. Thanks so much for sharing.

Makes me want to go for a swim if it won't throw me also hahaha

Do you collect and dry out the seashells and starfish?

Take care my friend!
