Knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding

Art becomes reality. We study the earth and it becomes smaller. We study the universe and it becomes smaller. The only limitless space is what lies in the human mind, the imagination. Could the universe be a single thought? Gaining knowledge and not using it produces a madness. A person I used to know would follow his wife around the house as he did her housework telling her everything he learned that day none of which she was interested in. Writing is a wonderful outlet for that knowledge. Steven King, Matt Groening, Tom Clancy and others have been accused of having the ability to see the future. I disagree. I think they have knowledge of the past and the present. If an ordinary person feels someone's wrist they will feel the pulse and it will mean the person is alive. If a doctor feels a person's pulse they can 'see' a heart arrhythmia because of their training and experience. If you're in a crowd and a riot begins you probably will be quite shocked. If you are a veteran cop with experience in riots unless your totally distracted you probably will be able to 'see' it forming. Humans like any other creature want to survive. They know from experience that the earlier a riot is stopped the greater the chances of them surviving. Their subconscious instinctively knows that better than they do. It cannot speak to their consciousness but it can nudge them in the right direction. There is nothing in the present that doesn't have a history. Everything we are comes from those who came before us. Are you as simple as a chimpanzee (chimps can learn even language as they can be taught sign language) as Adam and Eve were before the 'curse of the apple' gave them the ability for more or do you wish to embrace your 'curse' and learn?
