Wise enough to know how ignorant I am!

I just listened to an impressive discussion between Richard Dawkins and Steven Weinberg. I listened with fascination and gratitude that such brilliant minds exist.i could not get my brain around much of which they spoke.

I could shrivel up in embarrassment that my intelligence is nothing compared to these gentlemen, but instead, I can glow with a sense of satisfaction that I know enough to appreciate the wisdom and education of others.

I allow myself to soak in the brilliance of my brethren. What joy can we feel when we replace jealousness with wonder and curiosity! 

If, Instead of crumbling into feelings of inferiority, we take the opportunity to step up, even by inches, to celebrate our humanity. I grasp joy eagerly and hungrily at every opportunity.

That's how I roll!
