When I was very young, I wrote in my diary, "We write what we cannot say out loud". This has stayed true for me all these years, even as I realise that after writing something, it begins to be easier to share what you feel inside.
I've fallen behind in my writing projects due to two intensive courses - one Jin Shin Jyutsu 5 Day Basic Seminar and another intensive 7 day Fengshui course. What I love most is that feeling before you step into the Sea of Knowledge, brimming with anticipation and overwhelmed with humility in the face of years and years of wisdom. Newton was right - "if I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants". I do not think our generation is smarter than the previous in any way, in fact, we may be more prone to confusion and misinformation. And, if we do see further, are able to add any progress to this wonderful line of knowledge, it is because we can stand tall on things we know have been proven true -- "the world is round" and "i love you".
