Beautiful words.

Sowing and reaping, sowing and reaping...

Everyday I know exactly where "I am" based on what is showing up in my life.

If I am sowing...am I doing it with a positive joyful mind? Or, am I working and sowing out of duty, responsibility, and the need to pay my bills. Thus adopting a hunker down, survive by gritting my teeth - and ultimately hating every minute of it. Ugh! (That is not good for a soul's disposition!)

This was an excellent post. I too have contemplated similar thoughts.

Must we push past our limit in order for growth to take place? Is it possible to find a "push-and-pull rhythm" allowing us to deal with the contrasting situations that will inevitably give us a smack? Am I (finally) mature enough to recognize the opportunities when they come? (Sometimes in disguise.) Have I shaken off the difficulties of the past so I can get busy reaping all the amazing things I've been sowing? Ah so many wonderful questions this post brings up.

I will read this many times. Thank you @rok-sivante. I really LOVE your work.

@rock-sivante Your post made me think about artificial intelligence and the singularity which is debated so much nowadays.

That's something potentially really dangerous for humanity if not handled properly, but it could also bring so many benefits especially in the medicine field. Curiosity is the one to "blame" for much of our progress.

Very thoughtful. Keep pushing for truth, and trust your morality and choose your path wisely, but don't walk in fear, walk in caution, but find the truth. It's out there.

Drilling deep you've struck......wisdom and discernment. Thank you.

This is a very well written post and it surely has a deep message. Humanity has a bad record in being responsible with new and dangerous technologies so this is surely a warning that needs to be kept in mind.

But in the end, I do think we should seek as much knowledge and understanding and knowledge itself should not be viewed as something negative by itself. If there is an underlying truth in something, we would always be better off knowing it, even if it would be something unsettling. The problems come with things that can be abused.

We are made in God's image but we are not to be equal or greater than God. If we try to become as God we have no more use for our creator and create of disrespect for the one who made us. He made us and he can destroy us. The fear of God is wisdom.

Trail and error, learning from our mistakes indeed, but the key is learning, and not to repeat mistakes in a cycle. Some we keep repeating. Good post.

Beautifully written. I believe curiosity has produced some of the most exciting innovations in history (space travel, high power computing), as well as some of the most devastating creations in history (atom bomb, biological warfare). Curiosity with nefarious intent can be terrifying.

Maybe sometimes humans should stop thinking and just go outside, close their eyes and just listen what is around them.
