too bad I don't know everything

It seems like if you go through life trying to learn things and understand them, you can never have a static set of values. As you get new information, some of it tends to invalidate things you believed in the past, for me at least.
This leads to sudden shifts in beliefs every so often.
It's kind of nerve wracking and also interesting... interesting that what I once believed to be true I now consider to be false (wtf?) and nerve wracking in that I can have no static "purpose" to devote myself to...
I envy people who believe in something static such as a religious doctrine or a set of written laws. In a case like that you could devote yourself to ONE purpose and since time would be on your side you could perfect those skills related to that purpose.
What I'm saying is I'm an idiot, but I'm trying to move forward... with any luck when I die I will be a bit less of an idiot.

Hi, So what's the topic? Is this like a huge internal joke which I don't get?

I feel exactly the opposite of this. I would much rather take the challenge of insecurity. Life is never boring. Going back and forth to church and thinking the same thoughts for 70 years scares me. I saw my parents do it and I saw what happens when their energy breaks down and they can no longer live the facade. My mother went insane and suffered all the things she was trying to avoid by following some rules that somebody told her where the way one should live. She never lived any kind of authentic life. What a sad waste.:(

Actually the truth is that we don't know anything.
