Yesterday, Samantha was invited to swim in her friend’s place. Since she’s still on school vacation and I am taking a break, I let her. Apparently, her friend, which is our neighbor also, has a small pool in her place.

It’s actually just one of those you can inflate/deflate type of a pool for kids. To have a real pool at home would be nice. But to think of maintaining it cringe me. Of course, it’s different when you have a robotic pool cleaner. I think it would be easier to maintain it. But the amount of water you use would be quite expensive, I guess.

So having an inflated small pool for kids would suffice. My kids used to have one of those before. Now I dunno where I kept it. Maybe, I should start looking for it so samantha can use again.

[Wisdom] offers you long life in her right hand,
and riches and honor in her left.
She will guide you down delightful paths;
all her ways are satisfying.
Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
happy are those who hold her tightly.

Proverbs 3:16–18

Encouragement for Today

Wisdom is what people really should seek when pursuing “the good life,” not money. Money is merely a symbol, a medium of exchange. If you don’t have the wisdom to earn and keep wealth, it can ruin your life. Wisdom is what brings life, riches, and honor. Aren’t these the things people really want? Isn’t having these things—life, honor and riches—the very definition of success? We should seek, embrace, and hold on to wisdom, no matter what!
