Wisdom is hiding everywhere, but we haven't learned how to look, so that makes it very hard to see. It's a bit like those puzzles for children I remember, where you had to count how many animals you could find hidden in the picture of a tree. . . . It's certainly not the way most of us are educated to look.

To Practice This Thought:
Do a puzzle or play an optical illusion game. What wisdom is revealed?
