I wish I knew more about diseases. There is nothing I don't want to know, I like information.

I wish I didn't have the wisdom that I do about my mother's amoral character. It is awful to know that any man she needs support from at the time is the object of her love. It is very hard when the blind love a child gives to a parent is replaced by the cold reality of malice. That was very hard for me to say, but also very much needed for the catharsis of my damaged soul.

I wish I didn't know what was in the vaccines we put into our babbies.

Or, I wish I did know, befor I put it in my child.

Goodness. In all the knowledge I do obtain, I really can't say there is anything I wish I didn't know. I truly believe that what I know, I know for a reason and it has contributed in molding me into the person I am now.

I think that if I did have to pick one thing, it would be knowledge of war. What war has left people looking like, feeling like, scared of life its self. I find it so, so sad.

Things I wish I knew, there is so much! That would take me forever to list, for right now all the things I will be learning for the next decade in college I wish I already knew. That would save me mad cash.

I wish I didn't know about Youtube, I'd get so much more done, yo!

Ignorance is bliss I have heard....

What does anyone really KNOW? Knowledge is subjective.... facts are distributed within our conceptualization of reality but how much of that reality is altered by our belief systems, our customs and morays, our social strata, our ability to change circumstances for ourselves or others? So then what is knowledge but the contrived reality of facts related to our subjective views of how that knowledge affects all that surrounds us?
For instance.....we know how to terminate a pregnancy...does that knowledge comform to what we perceive to be morally correct? Does that knowledge fit into the acceptable category of birth control or women's rights? It is a knowledge that is subjective and fits into that category of the culture that surrounds us and determined by values, principles, beliefs, etc. These considerations are again constrained by economics, family values, state of life and station in life.
So then what do we KNOW? Pure knowledge is not possible it is constrained by all that surrounds it....cause and effect.

Perhaps pure knowledge is unattainable, but surely we can find some form of truth. If we really could never know, how would we have advanced thus far?

The truth does exists, but perhaps our understanding of it is constrained by those many things. Even if we can not objectively comprehend the issues, we can still know some element of them. If pure knowledge = objective truth we can not obtain it, but if knowledge is nothing more than the further comprehension of some ultimate truth, we can obtain it.

I wish my understanding of the evil nature of mankind was less developed. Being naive is nice while it lasts.

i have to say intutitvely that i do not wish i didnt know what i know. and of course that i am always learning and that all things i wish to know will come in time,experience,pain and joy.This includes all past and future lives.That said...if i were to answer form my personality self i wd say i have thing id like to know-
the mystry of reincarnation,karma,dreams and their work within us,subconsciuos processes,the process of all --universes,mind,spirit,soul,infinite..

and typos :)

I wish I didn't know that I am inadequate in my capacity to express myself as in writing, singing. There are songs and books that move me so much that I wish I could write something that impassioned others. To quote "a man's got to know his limitations"....

perhaps we need balance, maybe we need to know our limitations, but we also should realize our potentials too. And something else, It is not the most talented people that make it to become professional musicians, it is just the ones that stick with it and don't give up.

In Tony Hawk's biography, he wrote about how when he started to ride a skateboard at a young age, there were friends of his that had such a better talent and natural ability at it then him. But as they became board with it, he spent three years falling off of it. They gave up and he kept at it and now he is the most recognized name in the sport of skateboarding. Guess he did not know his limitations, did he? Maybe he just realized his potential.

My feeling is that we are capable of so much more then the fear will let us get to. I think when Mankind's consciousness evolves, then perfect sports feats will become commonplace. Sort of like what happened with the four minuet mile. For the longest time no body could run a mile in four minuets. Then one person did it. Then after that, a lot of other people found they could do it. But before it was accomplished, people thought it might be impossible.

Very,very perspicacious advice...realizing your potential instead of limitations. An innate capability, in singing especially, doesn't hurt. Oh to be able to sing like Ms. Ella Fitzgerald when she is crooning ballads or blues. LOVE the song "I Can't Give You Anything but Love" {happiness and I guess all those things you always pine for...}

hey i am right with you, I wish I had a tremendous voice, I love to sing in the car! But my voice is not that great. But with practice, I did win a karaoke contest! No kidding! I still have the portable dvd player prize! I used to do lots of karaoke, just too get over extreme shyness, it helped a lot. I developed a theory that there is at least one song out there for each person that they could learn to sing and sound good at it. So maybe not Ella, but who knows, I bet there is something you could sing well. Have you ever tried?
