“The more I learn, the
more I know to seek; the less I seek, the less I can learn. This perpetuity
would end if I refuse to learn and deny my need to seek. If I denied my need
to seek, I would assume I don’t need to learn. If I think I don’t need to
learn, call me blind.” Kai Napohaku
Thought Anyone who thinks, talks to them self in a way. Getting an idea then making points for and against it might sound like an argument between you and yourself. This was funny when I first thought of it. I try not to embellish what I write about. I keep it as realistic as is feasible, which lead me to this idea. If inquisitiveness asks why “I: ” wasn’t included as a person, it’s because I am no longer alone by myself. There is no “I: .” Me: I am not a poet. Myself: What? I write poetry, how can you say that? Me: Poetry requires inspiration. Therefore, I am not a poet. Myself: You’re not making any sense. Me: I think the thoughts, I choose the words, I edit, but I cannot create an original topic. Myself: Hmmm…Ok... Me: The things I write about write themselves. I just explain what I know. So I’m not a poet. Myself: Wait, but why doesn’t that make me a poet? Doesn’t that just mean all poets are like that? Me: You're not very bright are you? I don’t write anything original, but I also don’t copy what other people write. Therefore I am not a poet. Myself: Ok. You are giving us a headache. If your not a poet, then who is? Me: The one who created the original topics. Myself: (speechless…) Me: (…Taps foot) Myself: …Oh… so God is the only poet? Me: Yeah, and I’m just an interpretive translator.
