Additional Info
Write a 2000-word essay on how you intend to grow in wisdom over the course of your life. The essay should flow from your own head and heart commitments. It will likely include many if not all of the following components: 
1. What is wisdom? How is it recognized? 
2. How can it be obtained? 
3. What are the obstacles to finding wisdom? 
4. What texts anchor your understanding of wisdom? 
5. What wisdom practices do you intend to incorporate into your life? 
6. What story illustrates your understanding of wisdom? 
7. Describe a person that embodies your understanding of a wise person and the kind of person you want to become. 
8. What is a symbol that distills your understanding of what is truly valuable? 
Prepare to show this to the class. Maybe it is something the class needs to experience (outside the box is okay here).
