The only increase needed in life.

There is nothing more important in the world than knowledge.

All the gold in the world is nothing if you don't know how to find it.

All the illnesses that kill would overcome us, if we did not know how to treat them.

All the food for humanity would spoil, if we did not know how to preserve it.

All the crime would run rampant, if we did not know how to prevent it.

No animals would be in our dominion, if we did not know how to tame them.

No technology would exist, if we did not know how to create it.

No relationship would last, if we did not know how to keep it.

No grief would pass, if we did not know how to let it go.

We would not understand ourselves, and thus be lost.

We would not understand our families, and thus be lost.

We would not understand our cultural differences, and thus be lost.

We would not understand our God, and thus be lost.

Our bodies they fail us; knowledge advances.

Our mind tricks us; knowledge rights the ship of emotional turmoil.

Our hearts betray us; knowledge sews up the wounds.

Our children and our parents fail us; knowledge helps us see they are human.

It heals

It gives.

It assures the future.

It clears and cures the past.

Without knowledge- there is nothing.
