Today I Am Thankful For (day 17)

Day 17

Today I am thankful for that rare jewel called common sense and even more thankful that I have a little bit of it.

Education is a wonderful thing but common sense will in the long run get you much farther than all the book knowledge in the world.  I would much rather deal with someone who has good old fashioned horse sense and maybe limited education than someone with vast knowledge who doesn't have a clue how to apply it.  It also seems that people who are blessed with common sense are better able to deal with all types of people.  Please don't misunderstand I am not discrediting a good education.  It is vital in the society that we live in and I am very thankful for those people who posses both.
