As children, we are taught by
those who think they know.
As we grow older, by others
who think they know.
At the end of our lives, we
conclude that we have learned
nothing other then the fact that
life begins and end with ?
The question is did we listen to
those who taught us as children?
Did we listen to those who taught us
as we grew older?
Did we during those times come
to the conclusion, that we are not
just the product of our history, but
our history is the gateway to our future.
As children we are not responsible
for the quality of information that is
fed to us by those who think they know.
As an adult, it is our responsibility to
seek the truth.
It will do us well to remember that the
enlightenment of one's mind burns
brightest at the point of self discovery.
