There is small knowledge and then there is great knowledge.
Small knowledge is the everyday, mundane gossip
And the arguments of politicians;
Who is right today will be wrong tomorrow,
But nobody will remember.
But talk to me of love, of adventure, of romance or comedy –
And you speak to me in a language that echoes down the centuries,
Touching everyone.
So stop worrying about the small stuff and appreciate the greatest knowledge of all –
That we are on the journey of a lifetime,
And everyday is another opportunity to acquire wisdom in our quest for enlightenment.
Great Knowledge
