We would get old, and we would learn, experience, fail, and succeed some. We would lose people and we would also lose things that belong to us. At on point, we’d want to say we’ve been through all.

But have we? Have we been through “all“?

Say you’ve written a million-seller book and lived life to the fullest; but can you say you perfectly understand other people's lives? Can you relate to them without knowing much about them and try to fix, correct, and guide them?

I was in a room looking at one person, a rather elderly person, a rather well-known person, and hearing what she was saying. I felt something was off, and I looked her up on YouTube and browsed through her videos.

Do we really have the audacity to say, "I perfectly know things, and I will guide you from here"?

Acting confident is charismatic, and it gives false, liberating feelings to people so they follow the energy, but is it the right direction or the wrong direction?

I was looking at the person on the stage and hearing what she had to say. It almost felt right; it did touch something in my mind. Other people seemed to be enjoying the time, but is that the right direction or the opposite?

We read, practice, learn, and realize something as we get older, but do we ever know everything? Would holding three Ph.Ds make a person a wise one? Do all her theses make her something?

Is the loud one the wise one? Is the quiet one the wise one?

I was just looking at her while I was hearing what she had to say, and I was thinking about this.

Do we one day suddenly have the audacity to share funny theories and try to guide people?

Do we know anything? The stuff we think we understand—is it really the case?
