Tree of Knowledge
In a world brimming with information, amidst a forest of books on every subject imaginable, a young man pushed them all aside and chose to delve into the depths of self-discovery. This was not a question of identity alone but also of heritage, culture, and legacy.
Knowledge, for him, wasn’t just about absorbing facts, it was about understanding his roots and appreciating its rich cultural history. It was about grasping an understanding of oneself and the exploration of one’s capabilities and the innate potential that lies within the self and the community as a collective.
He discovered that he didn’t despise reading only what he was reading at that time. His passion was in the books that connected him to his people and a lineage of resilience and strength.
Only when we truly know ourselves can we effectively apply all the other knowledge we acquire and grow as individuals and communities.
