This is not a post about the movie Starship Troopers, where there is a constant question “Would you like to know more?”.
This post is focused on asking questions about stuff you don’t know anything about and would like to know something about. We should never be so intelligent that we make people feel dumb just for asking. It seems that sort of behavior happens online more these days.
To be enlightened, you must ask questions and be curious. I need to do more of that, we all need to do that. Even spouses need improvement in asking questions and listening.
So, yes, I would like to know more. It’s okay to explain to me so that I will be learned.
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles by it.
Some people drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle.
Robert Anthony
We live in a society exquisitely dependent on science and technology, in which hardly anyone knows anything about science and technology.
Carl Sagan
Everyday is an opportunity to find out something you didn’t know before. If you pay attention you might encounter something new will inspire you to find out more. The amount of knowledge in the world is amazing. I suspect no one will know everything there is to know about everything. Facts are important here as to differentiate between spin and opinion. Wisdom can help us apply our new found information. Learning is indeed a life-long process and it is more about action than anything else. Maybe if we did more learning it would inspire us to change ourselves and the world around us.
