The highest form of reading

Reading may lead to knowledge or understanding. But the highest form of reading is transformation.

Allan Bukusi

You can teach what you know

You can teach what you know, but you can only train what you understand. The difference is not education, it is transformation!

No civilization can advance ahead of God.

No civilization can advance ahead of God.

To leave a legacy...

To leave a legacy; you must live it.

Grow the mind thought by thought

We must grow our minds though by thought. We can exercise them by what we read, but we must grow the mind thought by thought.

STRIVE TO KNOW THE PURPOSE OF A THING


This week I have been challenged to know the purpose of a thing. The purpose of a thing is the thing, the reason for the thing and everything the thing is made to do. If you do not know the purpose of a thing, then you do not know the thing, its value or what the thing can do. In fact, if you do not know the purpose of a thing, the thing can have no meaning. However, if you know the purpose of a thing, you can begin to know it. If you do not know the purpose of a thing, it is useless to you. In your hands, it will be misused. It would be better if you did not use it.

But, to know the purpose of a thing is no small thing.  To know a small thing is a mighty thing when no one else knows the thing. If you know the thing, you can use the thing. That is a great thing. To know the purpose of a thing is no small thing. It makes a difference between life and death, between success and failure and between the end and the beginning. To know a thing is a good thing. It helps you know where to begin.  Strive to know the purpose of a thing before you use the thing. That way you will not only know everything about the thing, but everything the thing can do.
