The Last Lecture

I am currently reading The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch. This book was recommended by my P.

The book tells of how Professor Randy Paush, having diagnosed with terminal cancer, wrote about the journey he took in preparing for his last lecture. In his book, as he was recalling the events in his life, he related some of the wisdom and insights he had gleaned from the people in his life.

This is quite a good read but as always, it still pales in comparison to the bible. Many books I have read/browsed through have not the wisdom that the bible holds. The books of today explains in detailed/ puts concrete examples to the concepts and insights already available in the bible. I don't remember getting the AHA! or WOW! experience reading any books in the past few years.

Wisdom works hand in hand with knowledge, but wisdom is far greater than knowledge. So I always pray for wisdom, like what King Solomon did. We will never go wrong asking for wisdom.

These questions are good questions that will make one think:

What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance?

If we were to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy?
