    Wisdom is so often thought as a gift that many people overlook how it can also be a curse. Teiresias‚ a character in Oedipus Rex by Sophocles‚ is an Oracle that is miserable with the wisdom he holds. Oedipus‚ the king of Thebes‚ solves the riddle of the Sphinx to obtain the throne. Now the king is trying to find out who is responsible for the plague. However‚ Teiresias knows that Oedipus is searching for himself.

A poem called “the Woodcarver” that I also read had to do with Hinduism also.
