A thought for the day

(1/5) > >>

Who is it that has true knowledge of their inner-self? 

Sometimes, the one who talks, talks because he wants to know.  While the one who doesn't talk, knows and does not talk, for to put that knowledge into words, would be like putting the ocean into a drop of water.

rafsta:
that's deep...

i think i know myself pretty well, but isnt it obvious until you fully mature and grow up you will not know yourself completely ?

rafsta:
what is your interpretation of that sentense ?

thats very generalised... i dont know if i agree with it, but it could be true... some people dont talk because they have nothing to say, and some people talk because they have alot of knowledge which they wish to share...

rafsta:
wait does it mean for the quiet people they find it difficult to communicate ? when infact they have bulk knowledge they just struggle sharing it ? two lines shouldnt be that puzzling...

TraceOneInfinite:
All of your replys were totally legitimate.  The 'thought' was not necassarily something to agree or disagree with, and there is no one particular thing your supposed to get out of it.  I just put it up so people could think and ponder on it.

Myself, I get out of it 3 things in particular.

#1.   Most importantly, sometimes, the most beautiful things in life, and our deepest understandings of our own lives, can not always be adequately put into words. 

#2.   Sometimes the people who you find talking all the time about superficial issue's of little value, are talking because they want knowledge of self.  Without realizing it consciously, they are talking because they are searching for something, they are reading the reactions and responses of others to try to learn more about themselves. 

#3.   Sometimes you'll find someone who is very quiet and has little desire to be the center of attention.  Often these are very special people.  Maybe they spend a lot of time by themselves, but they truly love themselves and love being by themselves.  They have true knowledge of self and can be happy just searching within themselves.
