The most important premise of this article, in my mind, is that to even begin and know how to pursue being virtuous, one must understand how and what that means, it takes what the Bible calls wisdom and intelligence to start down that path, that most people long to be.
This article can and already has helped my family by inspiring me to make sure my children know their mission in life before they leave my home, and an outstanding education is imperative in achieving it. Happiness is also wrapped up in this bundle of wisdom/intelligence and virtue. So why would any mother want anything but intelligent and virtuous children if their happiness depended on it.
The value of reading this article is inspiring yourself to keep on keeping on, to focus and know that my children need to witness me striving to gain wisdom, in hopes that they too always strive for knowledge. Intelligence is the key to being virtuous, and being virtuous is a key to happiness.
