There is nothing more frustrating than talking to someone who is smarter than you, nor anything more boring than communicating with someone who is stupider. I know there are many a young person out there who is smarter than me, such that conversation with them will either make me burdened or make me want to bash my head in the wall at the sheer impossibility of being a part of their lifeworld. There is an ideal amount of oscillation between intelligence and stupidity in a conversation, the comfort level being when either the two people are of roughly the same intelligence level, or that their areas of expertise overlap, with an amount of fifty percent being ideal. I want to apologize for not being smarter, and curse you if you want to make me dumber. Knowledge must be gathered slowly, and for some people, I am no different than a child learning to take his first steps, for if you rush me, I will just sit down and do nothing. Programming as a body of knowledge is simply too advanced for me at this point in my life. I can read snippets a few times per day for a few minutes, but I get distracted to other bodies of knowledge often.

  Let’s face it. If a person is given wealth and a title, it is not to glorify him, but rather to curtail his power so that it is either limited or reduced in influence. A person with knowledge and communication can run the earth, and wealth is given to him to give others the chance to participate in this activity.

Nonetheless, we must recognize that the amount of knowledge available, so long as a single human being in a single lifetime is concerned, is infinite, meaning that the process of its acquisition should be based purely on emotional grounds, rather than anything else. Balancing out the interplay between emotions and information, that is, the emotive-information lattice, is an important condition for life management, especially after the reading, thought matrix is harmonized. Words are ammo, and your mind a gun. Use your heart, tempered by your mind, to determine what is right and...

  Mental health. Do we need to say any more? If you are diagnosed as mentally ill, and you do not care much for recovery, people are going to treat you as a lunatic, exposing you to the vilest aspects of life because they think you are nothing, accentuated by the fact that you debase yourself. Mental health is not a mere phenomenon, it’s a way of life. When you speak of honor, people are going to ignore you, at least those closest to you will, because it does not take into account the multifaceted aspects of mental life. I want to be the prophet of healthy living, but take caution, for surrounding yourself with wealth will destroy any mental stability you have attained. If you must make money, make money, but don’t surround yourself with people of such stature, for the sake of your emotional stability, and therefore your mental well being. Doctors, you mighty paragons of existence, I beseech you, aim for perfection, and understand that your directives for health is what creates th...

It is not our intention to trickle effort from ourselves to you. A better achievement would be to push inspiration to you, letting God’s kindness do it’s work in harmonizing your minds as a store for knowledge, and your hearts as a castle of respect.
