Motivational Corner :The blessing of knowledge

Published on

By Beatrice Sithole
IT is said ignorance kills one’s conscience and soul.  Knowledge is a light that leads to wisdom.  

It is life for the soul and fuel for the character.
It is a fact that anyone who studies the history of his/her family background, that person is an asset to the future generation of the family.  
The same applies to a people who have knowledge of the history of their country. They are enlightened and are an invaluable asset to the future generation.

Anyone who invests in acquiring knowledge of his/her family background and the future aspirations of that family, workplace, community and country is wise.  

That knowledge, if passed on to other relevant people can be a game changer and the fruits of that knowledge can then be capitalised on at numerous levels, thereby making a family, company, community and country richer in many ways.

Therefore, if a person/a people is ignorant and has no knowledge, let them not be proud of either their wealth or their status in society: their life is lacking in meaning, their achievements are woefully incomplete.  

Ignorance breeds disunity between the enlightened and those who are in the dark. If a person/a people studies their history, they are able to digest and have a clear picture of the good or bad of where they are coming from.  
They are then able to cultivate on the good and weed out the bad so that the family, company, community or country can grow in stature.

Happiness, high-spiritedness and unity comes with enlightenment because through knowledge, a person/a people can fulfill its goals and discover what was previously hidden from them.  

When a person/a people has got knowledge, they know what is good for them all. They work towards the same goal and nothing can stand in their way.

Knowledge can be acquired through reading the relevant books or researching through the latest technology, it can be acquired through other people or through other various means of research. The beauty of gaining knowledge is that it eradicates ignorance it brings happiness and it stimulates the mind. A person/a people perish because of lack of knowledge.

On the same breath, it can safely be said a person/a people grows because of the wisdom obtained through knowledge.  
Therefore, if a person, a people desire happiness, then they should seek knowledge and enlightenment.
