"Daddy I know everything"

Tonight at dinner my Five year old professed to me, "Daddy I know everything" " Do you?" I responded. He smiled and told me he did. "What is everything?" I asked. "I know that apples and cherries are red" he confidently snapped back. He knew full well that his response answered my question. He was sure the conversation wouldn't continue down that vein. "Is that everything?" I continued, just to see where it would go. " "it's enough" was his response.

Our experiences are draped with knowledge. Each one of us has had multiple experiences as have our families and friends, friends of friends, and neighbors and so on and so on. I have a faith that tells me we are all connected. We are more than what our mirrors reflect back to us. As one, the knowledge must be a communal property, a shared file. Psychics for years have delved into the unversal consciousness to pull information during readings. here was my five year old telling me he know's everything. I think he is right, and as he delves deeper into his interests, the knowledge will be there for the plucking. Like an apple or cherry from a tree. The knowledge is there for the taking. Pluck what is "enough," and be grateful for the resource of universal knowledge. At five years old apples and cherries are red is enough. He made me smile.
