KNOWING IS NOT KNOWLEDGE, SEEK KNOWLEDGE

KNOWING IS NOT KNOWLEDGE, SEEK KNOWLEDGE

Knowing is not knowledge. Knowing and Knowledge are two different things. Many people know many things, yet only a few are wise. To know many things without knowledge can lead you to harm. Knowledge is the relationship between all the things you know and how all the things you know relate to life. Knowing the total number of leaves on a tree, though hard to do, does not give you knowledge of trees. We need to understand what we know and how it affects us in life. This gives meaning to life. Do not seek to know, seek knowledge. To apply knowledge with skill is wisdom and gives meaning to life.
