What is this blog about?

There is no such thing as an expert on the topic of Life. We all have had our battles, our suffering, and our questions. Despite the uniqueness of our personal obstacles, we have endured them. We have endured them well enough to advise those behind us as to how to do the same. I have done the research on your behalf regarding the multitude of reasons why wisdom exists. My mission is to utilize the voices of the world's greatest thinkers and heroes to compose a guideline of life's wisdom so that you don't have to experience those trials alone.

If you have any questions, please tweet them to me @JoeSielski or email me at DelawareGLU@gmail.com

(Please title your email with the word "Wisdom" so I know it will be for this blog.)

I will do my best to try and answer every question as quickly and efficiently as possible. Thanks.

The Story of Two Voices ( a poem)

The Story of Two Voices

Every story needs a voice to share it.
There are only two. 
All stories are spoken by either the voice of pain or the voice of peace.

Those who speak stories of pain use the voice of pain.
They can only teach of pain.

Those who speak stories of peace use the voice of peace.
They can only teach peace, which confuses those who know only of pain.

Those who speak stories of pain with the voice of peace teach both.
But more importantly, they also teach the distinction between the two.


Those who know only the voice of pain will often know no other
Those who know the voice of peace will pursue it.
It is used only to explain the limitations of pain.    

We speak of what we know.
Seek peace.
Speak peace.
