The answer is because.
Knowledge for the sake of knowledge is different than the knowledge for the sake of power. Knowledge for the sake of knowledge ends in joy, but knowledge for the sake of power, ends in greed.
Wow..to me that even sounded too knowledgeable. [:D][:D][:D]
Can you say, stop using the word, knowledge?..hehehe
Nay. [;)]
Steel,
es-tu vraiment folle, ou bien fou? Parce qu'il faudra que tu decides?
Whom is crazy, Shaman?
Nay [;)]
I do not know who is crazy. The title of the posting is "je suis folle" which means in French "I am crazy (female)". However, poster is a male, not a female. So I am asking him whether he is really "folle" or "fou", where "folle" is female and "fou" is male. So you should ask Stell Hawk what He means by "je suis folle".... I am just trying to uderstand...
"une folle" also means a gay person... [|)]
(deja vu. it seems like i saw this thread once already, like last month sometime)
but here's my answer to the question of "why": why not? [|)]. if there is a point to living here then we can't really know what it is until it reveals itself. the idea is that we "find" it after years and years of searching, but i don't believe that is always the case. so rather than trying to figure out what i'm "supposed" to do, i'm rather taking a different approach for now: i'm figuring out all the things i "shouldn't" do and discarding them from my life.
can't say that it gives an answer to the question of "why" any better than anything else would, but it's something to do ^_^ .

Why? Just because:
Life is its own reason for being.
Unfortunately, we are born in ignorance and we die that way. Perhaps when it is over, we learn the why of everything we experienced while here in the physical realm.
Which probably just leads to a whole other set of questions and whys and what fors.
After a point, we need to just accept that we may never know the why of anything or anyone in our lives and just experience each moment.
This place is filled with knowledge. Yet we all know nothing, in comparison to the truth. When I close my eyes there is nothing but myself. When I open my eyes there is nothing but myself.
Joy should have been my quest, instead I searched for knowledge and power. I don't believe anyone can answer this question, but I think some will understand. That question is; Why?
That I believe is the ultimate of all questions, that no one can answer.
I wish I could find a place wisdom.
