Ronnie had his Nancy who watched his back and helped him through it because she adored him. Ronnie didn't cheat on her or humiliate her or embarrass her. Why? Because he adored her too. The donjohn has Melania. Barely. She is not watching his back. She does not adore him. She tolerates him and puts in her time until such time as she can take her son and escape. Ronnie earned the adoration of his wife. Donjohn treated his wife with contempt/disdain. WHY SHOULD SHE WATCH HIS BACK?
We think that with age comes wisdom. The older a person is the wiser they must be.
We think that wealth equals wisdom. The more wealth a person has the wiser they must be.
We think that our spouse will support us in everything we do… even if we cheat on them or treat them disrespectfully.
Oh what fools we really are.
People want to associate wisdom with knowledge. The more someone knows, the wiser he or she must be. Knowledge abounds in the world today. We have all the knowledge ever accumulated right at our fingertips. Yet we are more ignorant now than human kind has ever been. Therefore, wisdom has to more than just having knowledge. Wisdom is the ability to think and act using knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight, in a mature manner. While knowledge abounds in our society, common sense and understanding are severely lacking. Yet without these, there can be no wisdom.
