knowledge

'knowledge itself is power.'-???

part of a phrase that's longer and more meaningful, but also slips my mind. it's that phrase on my photo frame of my kindergarden class picture that drives me to know things.

now i realise my error. knowledge does not give you power. it is power. it can break you, make you. sometimes you can use it. sometimes it uses you.

knowing things may be a blessing. it can be a curse as well. me knowing something, finding out something, broke me again.

i will survive. being well i will. maybe no more spectacular. but will be alright.
