ABSTRACT
We say that someone is wise. But what do we mean by that? The wise person somehow has the insight to make good judgments in complex circumstances, to handle new situations effectively, and to remain centered amidst the flux. Complexity, flexibility, stability...wisdom is really a high level of growth. Enough knowl edge and skills have been added and integrated, enough growthful transformations have transpired, that the person has acquired the ability to understand life’s predicaments deeply and to act constructively.
