Catching Wisdom
The quote from Calvin Seerveld: “You cannot teach wisdom, I believe, but wisdom is contagious; you can catch it.” It means that at college you cannot take a class in Wisdom 101W, but if you take enough classes then you will learn wisdom because of being around smart people and experiences. We should be able to “catch” wisdom from all areas in our lives. We can learn it from going to classes, going to church, and reading the Bible. Something that you may or may not have realized is that you cannot catch a cold sitting by a fire alone by yourself. To catch a cold you have to first go out into the cold or catch it from another person.
