Probably more times than not when you think about it.  Isn't a foe everything you don't want to be? So, you learn and get wisdom from the recognition of those things.  It's when the foe has a trait that you don't like or want that you recognize as one of your own that you REALLY get wise, and take the action needed to correct it.

Thanks for another quest quote, Bogdan

Judy

Hi Bogden,

I have learned much from enemies. Most of the time they become
my friends before I am finished speaking to them when they
realise that I only hold good thoughts about them and I tend
to forget the things I don't like.

Foe's have taught me to be respectful and kind in all my
dealings with people. In this way, I have learned to be
a better person. In so doing, I defeat the enemy by
thier own actions.

Hi Bogdan,

Thank you for this great quote. It is important to be open-minded. I believe that we can learn something from everyone we come in contact with. However, we may not like what we learn because it means giving up what we have held onto for so long as the truth when in actuality it wasn't.

Peace, Health and Prosperity,
Barb Doyle, Sc
