One cannot have wisdom without perspective,
but once gaining perspective, one attains wisdom.
Wisdom is the ability to view every situation
as each person who is in any way affected
by that situation might view it.
Wisdom benefits from having a knowledge of history,
and therefore a historical perspective,
as well from as having the perspective of imagination -
the realm of the what-might-be
inhabited by futurists and science-fiction writers.

have a strong opinion and point-of-view,
and are sure that we know how everything is supposed to be.

they're your true best friends.
Don't let go of them.
Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world.
