We are taught that although "barba non facit philosophum" (roughly translated from Latin as "a beard does not make one a philosopher") grey hair is a sign of wisdom.
We live in an interesting time, one in which I see myself and my close, dynamic, industrious friends flooded with problems. I look in the mirror and I look at my friends and I see the hairs on our heads turning to grey little by little. With every obstacle that faces us, with every problem we surpass we become greyer and greyer. Yes, the more we do, the more we learn, the wiser we become!
I still call it stress not wisdom and I wonder. I wonder, is the stress that makes us grey really necessary on the path to wisdom? Is there no other way to make us wise?
