The Importance of Knowing Today

Across Earthly timelines, humanity has searched for answers concerning their origins and meaning of life on this planet. There exists today countless volumes of information, not only current, but also of antiquity, that leaves many asking themselves what is the answer to our existence? Religious beliefs, scientific understanding, and intuition leaves us each to form our own answers. We believe this veil of understanding, or that current of knowledge, but many of us can find ourselves shattered at any moment as our own expectations of questions unanswered leave us blindsided at times. So what is there to do?

We each are responsible for each other as a whole, but alas, this world mirrors the opposite at a minimum 50% of the time. We look in one direction and then the next, until something else catches our eye. We wonder to ourselves if that source or this source is correct or incorrect. We ponder for our own understanding, possibly eventually letting go of such searchings. However, as history has shown, eventually answers do come. Knowing can be simply a matter of waiting. Could it simply be the simplicity of simple patience?

The importance of knowing today is akin to awaiting the rain that was forecast. How many have said “the second coming” is at hand? How many have said WWIII is upon us? How many have said this or said that, only for none to come to fruition? Yet, at the same time, we have seen the imaginings spoken of become realities. The gift of flight, the automation of machine and computer, the advances in healthcare. What has not come, has come, it is merely a measure of what has has become.

Knowing what is more important than knowing what has become. Just because something has not become does not mean that something is not. For these very words mimic the movies we watch as something that not is becomes before our very eyes. But that is just CGI, one might say. Well, what is CGI if not a something that has become? Was it not so 100 years ago? It is a thing today, as easily viewed as opening a new browser tab and going to youtube. So, knowing and seeing, and even feeling, all become a something, if even the “something” may not be the concrete definition one defines as reality. However, regardless it is still a thing, a knowing.

The importance of knowing is unrealized until known for self. See a mountain, you know it’s real. See a picture of a mountain, is it real? Is it the photographer’s reputation that makes it more real? Maybe he faked it and drew it, saying he photographed it? Knowing is knowing, simply, and its importance is no more regardable than a photographer’s proof of a mountain. Many call it imagination. So too do engineers who design the building that stands today. A mountain all its own it is, a creator it has.

So, each of us, just by sheer knowing, are creators as well. Knowing, no matter the simplicity or the complexity, has its merits equal in value. For the meek and the mired all hold keys to knowing that merely represent a position across a scale. Knowing, in all its forms, is knowing alone. Breath is not breath better, but breath same. Skin covers, not valuizes. It is, no more. Each has its own, each owns, of equal value. My hello, is no more than hers. The knowing of hello has its value no matter who utilizes.

The importance of knowing, even in unknowing, is knowing that knowing is then, it is now, and it is to be. For knowing now, is to have known, and proof of will know. So, even if something is not known today, this mere importance can easily be illustrated that knowing just is. Even after reading this writing, what is known can change, even if a relaxation of the stress of unknowing is lightened even slightly. Knowing is and has been and will simply come. There is much mystery behind that statement. Even the knowing of that can bring more knowing than can be imagined.
