Wisdom

Wisdom comes in many ways and forms. Here are a couple example. It took me all these years to realize the wisdom that lies beneath.

Long long time ago I knew this girl. It took me all these years to realize her wisdom. Whenever she has a different opinion with someone else, she always went with the other party's suggestion/opinion. Why? In her own words, "so I can tell you 'I told you so' later on."

Another girl, if anyone ever told her, "I'll tell you something, but you can't tell a single soul." Her immediately response would be, "I have a big mouth. If you don't want anyone to know, don't tell me."

In this day and age when most big companies expect their employees (at least so says the employee handbook) to act morally and to report any activities that is illegal, borderline illegal, or just grossly morally wrong, that's the best way to defend oneself. I can't report what I don't know. As long as I don't know what's going on, it will never be my responsibiity to report the iffy activities.
