DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER, DISCLAIMER!!!
When wondering through the world take note.
Because everything you see is noteworthy in some way.
Yes yes, there is too much to information all at once to pay attention to everything.
But eventually you may find yourself focusing in on something of interest.
And if you pursue this interest it can with time and study make you an expert on the subject.
This of course does not mean that you will know it all,
but your knowledge will not be alone…
An ecologist might not know much about psychology,
but know a great deal about the woodland creatures that inhabit a forest.
The geologist may not see the forest for the trees,
but have insights on the history of the region and the dynamics of the dirt beneath the roots and leaves.
If the astronomer seems moody on a sunny day,
it’s just because they are waiting Impatiently for a better view of the milky way.
The physicist can appear an unlikely sort of explorer,
staying inside hunched over a keyboard eyes glued to a screen for several hours…
But they might be adventuring anywhere
from the big bang to the tiniest traces of subatomic particles escaping a super-collider.
And while the psychologist might not know much about quantum micro gravity
They might understand ways in which an ecologist might better communicate to their spouse.
