Knowledge…
It is not straightforward
nor organized
It is tangled
and multifaceted.
Complex.
It must be untangled
just to be understood.
In combing out the strands
we find the each one
a treasure
to be added to our own
Pandora’s Box.
When we learn, it is a form of organization. We take a jumble of information and we organize it into our minds in a way that creates its own sense. Its own interconnections and meanings. This is how knowledge is created, by the obtaining the tangled soruces of information and the de-tangling of those strands as we suss out meaning… and absorb it as our own.
