I like to share this about two words and its differences. It says, "Smart people solve problems, while intelligent people avoid problem"
While reading that, I quite pause a little and how two words struck my mind. Oh, wow this is interesting words. I contemplate, what kind of person am I? Looking back on my past experiences, I was thinking what kind of person I am? Also, I try to look at people and their lives what kind of person they were? Are they smart or intelligent?
My father's influence had affected my life so much since I stayed with him when my parents separated. I remember one time, he said, "Work and do not depend on the government", "be ready and prepare", "avoid problems in life and do not add complications to your life" and so on and so fort. On the other hand, Biblical views has affected my life, too. Honesty, kindness are just two I try to apply in life. Also, transgression of the law which is called sin also affect me. I have strong conviction when it comes to that. Just like commit adultery, fornication, premarital sex, and so on and so fort. It becomes my way of life and daily, needed to renew and be reminded. It is because the world is getting having low moral.
Also, working roles and duties and responsibilities has affected me. Like, stick to the vision and mission, try to be kind and servant heart. Nobody is perfect however things makes us mature in the long run. It is just a matter of how we wanted to grow and being responsible person.
Therefore, are you kind of person who avoid problems or are you a person who is smart and able to solve problems you have had?
I guess, I am more of avoiding problems so to avoid complications in life. Life is so short to be stressed with. By having wisdom and guidance from Above, we can be intelligent one and be smart, too when we are into situation that needed to have solution.
Have a good day, and enjoy life
