Human beings have been created to find their way from the labyrinthine and various paths and valleys, some of which are easy to go through and some others are very difficult to move in. In the impassable ways, sometimes a wrong step will result in falling and death. Passing these impassable paths requires suitable equipment and the skill of using them appropriately. In the path, nothing is predictable; therefore, a person must be ready for any probable problems. Moreover, the person has the authority to select which path to step in. Whether we want it or not, we will encounter problems in our life. However, the wise man is the one who is ready for them and does not make wrong decision [does not select the wrong path], a wise man is the one who is able to find the best way.
You may probably ask what these skills and equipment are and how we can distinguish the right from the wrong. Human being is required to select the path in which they are constantly acquiring knowledge and wisdom. The knowledge acquired in this way is like a tool which is added to the equipment they had before. In addition to the equipment, changing the knowledge into practical knowledge [putting what they know into practice] will be necessary and more fruitful, because having the tools but not knowing how to use them is equal to not having them.
A wise man is the one who does not wait for the difficult conditions to come, a wise man is the one who equips himself in the peace so that he can find the best way and use the best tools when he is in the hardships of life.
