Can you point out and explain what you think is your main source of wisdom:

(poll)

1. your talks with your parents, family,
2. your talks with your friends,
3. what you've learned in school,
4. reading books
5. searching the internet,
6. your instinct, deep feelings,
7. other, .....

I can't tell for myself, i lack any wisdom....



EDIT: finally i've found wisdom in instinct/feelings
 
I gotta be honest, it's OT.
It really has given me a lot of knowledge of the world.

School and family have given me lots of info too, though. :)
 
Mainly the Internet and Books and sometimes talks with my friends.
 
Books and watching people.
 
I've been lucky that I have alot of great friends. We spend many evenings discussing the world. I also read everything I can get my hands on.
While I do find OT enlightening as far as learning about new things. (I'm a lurker, rarely post) I do find that there are many folks here are opinionated on subjects that honestly they really couldn't know very much about. There are others though that are insightful (so long as it doesn't turn to the whole ridiculous right/left arguments.) But all in all, it is always entertaining if not educational. Keep up to good work.
As for wisdom, the only wisdom anyone can really have is life experience, and that is subjective to the highest degree. :crazyeye:
 
MobBoss. The Prophet of Common Sense. (I just beat Perfection at sarcasm there).
 
Parents and observations. Haven't read any books that really offer any wisdom, except maybe Dilbert.

Religion is full of wisdom and can guide many people in their lives, but I'm not religious.
 
And I like Fox News for its factual and informative non-biased news reports as well.
 
For knowledge in order of importance -- books, internet, magazines/newspapers, tv/documentaries. And maybe when i gather enough knowledge i may also gain some wisdom :).
 
I voted other. Both books and the internet, which in turn laid the foundation for My instinct, deep feelings. My parents, family, and "friends" tend to be sheeple, so I don't get much out of Them. And I only got basic English and math out of school. The rest just went in one ear/eye and out the other.
