How We Go Up, Up

Our ascension in life is principally dependent on what we know. By stark human experiences, I have come to terms with this old truth and realized that indeed, knowledge is power. For the weak, poor or worthless man is the way he is for lack of knowledge. He is destitute merely because he doesn’t know his way out of ignorance. So, whatever shackles that may hold him down, be it spells of witchcraft spawned from his village or the misfortune of being ruled by corrupt leaders, his only way out is to face squarely the “How?” of the matter, and then spend his time finding out the answer. And in finding the answer, would he, by his own hands, create the footholds for his climb out of the darkness, into the light.
