We know very little about Life

There’s no way to tell if you’re even remotely well informed about life and what the truth really is, so much so that I've accepted I don't know so much. Way more things I don't know than what I know. You are given a little knowledge of life, a really embarrassing fraction and you're to live with that getting a little bit more each day and that is only if you're intentionally learning.

Very few people actually take the time to sit with the discomfort and allow that truth to change their character. People read a few articles, gather opinions and think they’re informed and know everything. The sad truth is, most really don’t know anything.

Learning and studying makes you realize how large the gap is in your knowledge, truth and updated knowledge. Learning a real knowledge makes you more cautious than before you knew it. It makes you take your time before you speak and you’re asking questions.

Cultures, humanities and science that you have never come in contact with. Knowledge is like a vast network and the end cannot be readily reached.

People who sit in ignorance are those who are unwilling to know what they don’t know.

You're just at the sea shore, but to go to the very center, and start going down that sea, that ocean and go further down to experience new things is another thing.

So I ask myself this question, what do you do with what knowledge you have?

You give yourself the freedom to continue exploring for longer periods of time and to arrive at conclusions later than most people do. You are willing to look at the next person you disagree with and consider the possibility that they are right and you're wrong and perhaps metaphorically, they are at another location on the beach where they are able to see something you cannot.

Regardless of your level of conviction about what you know, the vast ocean remains.
