The typical quest for gaining knowledge is through research and inquiring. This of course requires work. Investigating, evaluating, escalating and sometimes even interrogating. It is through a variation or perhaps all of these methods where we obtain truth or a sense of realism, including our own.

Each person is unique to his or her own sense of finding a path that's been setup specifically for them. Within the threshold of this path, we can find ourselves and begin to search for the why and where I am being led or called. The necessity of understanding this is crucial because our level of zeal is reflected in our discovery objective.

Where the issue becomes more obscure, is when others who are placed in our path for the furtherance of our journey manifest challenges that we might not want to confront or even consider as an assistance to our next level or shift. Again, Understanding is not always a meal that is served delicately or comfortably but we must all past through its corridors.  

It is within this process where questions are answered, and beliefs are generated for a clearer view of where we are headed and what it will take to get there. Honesty and earnest desire are found as to who we really are and the sincerity of growth that we desire.

Have you ever noticed that arguments begin with a conversation, but many times result in just bitter feelings, hurt and time that have been wasted, with no real tangible outcome?

When we view the disagreement from a neutral corner, we possibly can see a thought that we never considered or a lesson that was never taught. Genuine understanding requires the observer to carry the virtue of patience and the absence of arrogance or self-importance that would make listening to another perspective and gleaning from it, impossible.

Let each of us seek to increase the value of others as we would want them to enhance our own, and then maybe our search for understanding might be obtained.
