All our lives we are learning. We collect facts, interpret findings, and attempt to use information recast as knowledge, or perhaps even wisdom from our experiences. Each step along the way provides new insights. Our perspective changes as we progress.

Once in a while, we endeavor to realize particular subjects of consideration in their "true light". Very often we may believe we really do see the light. It helps if you have a wide variety of experiences to draw upon to reach your level of satisfaction.

I really enjoy finding new ways to understand life. In a few rare cases, I discovered something so dramatically different to my "normal" understanding that I underwent a paradigm shift from the experience. As I became aware of the new insight, I sensed a new key to knowledge being added to my educational keychain.

The situation is not without an emotional component. To ponder better and further is a rewarding aspect of life. The dawn of understanding should be enjoyed for the brief amount of time from the relinquishing of the old, to the acceptance of the new.
