Maybe wisdom is finding a way to make something useful/beautiful out of all of our annoying traits?
Yes, I like this.
I was sharing the Meyers-Briggs test with a relative, and he kept picking out any weakness indicated by his profile and ignoring the strengths. (Think Eyeore, only all self-directed.)
Naturally, I told him that there's no "good" or "bad" profile; every one of the personality types has its own strengths and weaknesses. Some people are better suited to some jobs and situations, and others are betters suited for others. But in the end, M-B is about giving us self-knowledge so that we can use our gifts to their fullest and minimize our weaknesses.
Wisdom!
