Intelligence - wise people
Wise people who do not jump to conclusions. They take a broader view. They give very practical answers. They take a balanced view. They are not so dogmaticc. They are more tolerant. They look deeper in things. They can generate and consider alternatives. They look at things differently and from many angles.
We live in the world in the world we "see"/preceive. But the world we see is not the physical world around us but the "perceived" world in our minds. The physical world may be exactly the same but different people will see different things. A story similar to a couple of blind people explain an elephant by their own perception. Each one tell something different, but each is correct or each is wrong. It is better to say it is not complete.
Our mind does not get information without a feeling. It will tag something good, bad, etc. The mind brings in information, experience, frames, present contexts, feelings and emotions. All these get organized by perception to give us "the way we look at the situation".
Three intellectual ages of man:
0 to 5 years - the age of "why". They just get more information to link up these small pieces of perceived world to bigger perception.
5 to 12 years - the age of "why not". They are probing for information, and play with ideas. They are free to be creative and to try out new possibilities.
12 to 75+ - the age of "because". Over time our individual perceptions will accumulate, and settle down to provide us our personal view of the world. This is how we see the world, and we react/act based on this perception. That would be full of inadequaies, prejudices, stereotypes and confusions. However, this is our own world.
