Know thyself...then what?

Knowing yourself is probably the most important adventure you'll ever take...and it's endless...

Written in stone and in poetry, those words are their own philosophy. And one that is not easy to follow. Why is that?

It's hard to know who we are. We know what we don't like better than what we like. We know we think, and therefore are, but we don't know if we think right or well. And when do know so, we turn arrogant and inflexible bringing us back to where we started. And the more we know about the world outside, the more we realise that it's the world inside that matters. Yet how we react to that outer world, is an important element of knowing oneself. At one point, most of us decide to explore this world of our own. We study dreams, meditate, join orders, experience in drugs, choose a religion, fight for it, become atheists or agnostics and ponder what it all mean. All in all, we search for ourselves everywhere, even inside, and are often left with more questions than answers.

Suppose you finally know yourself, then what? 

What do you do with that knowledge? Do you share it risking to be seen as arrogant and potentially pedantic? do you keep it secret and let the rest of us find out our own path? Do you create parables and story and let the worthy be initiated into your realm?

Well, if you've found the way, share it and let us deal with our emotions. 

Sometimes it feels it's easier not to know oneself. Yet, the only way to grow starts there. No exceptions.
