A child cannot learn something
without running out and screaming it to others.
And so it should be with all those who have knowledge.

Very true; children publicly announce their new found knowledge, and boostfully, without malice share it.
I have observed Sparrows. A sparrow calls out to others when there is food to eat."Puzzled" that such small birds know the importance of sharing, but man gathers all for himself!

Lessons I think there might be 2 sides to this story. All lessons are for teaching , but some lessons are to be left alone so that one can move on instead of being stuck in the past? Reply

This is a vindication. I'm a teacher by profession, but I've been told that I'm a teacher by nature. Maybe that's a good thing. Reply

I JUST LEARNED TO KNIT!
I knew you'd understand and I have to share!
LOL
This is very true. Once we know the truth, we mustn't be afraid to live it. As with everything, we must know the bounds of when to express it.
