( Wisdom .. Believing will never be knowing ..
  The man who knows not
But knows not that he knows not
Is a fool ....Shun him~
The man who knows not
And knows he knows not
Is a student ...... teach him~
The man who knows
But knows not that he knows
Is asleep ..... awaken him~
But the man who knows
And knows that he knows
Is a teacher.......Learn from him~ )

Its written always of so very long ago
Going back as far as any can in time..
Of what they all believed away back then
Of all things from evil to the believed divine..

But since any thinking life on this planet lived
One aspect has never to this day ever changed..
The meaning of the word believe then and now
Has been always will though meanings rearranged..

What they back then believed they then believed
Just as almost all still believe in things today..
Believing has and is just that believing not knowing
Just as almost all believe still today when they pray..

The very first thinking soul on earth they believed
In whatever it was they believed in at any given time..
And right up until this very day and age almost all believe
Believing is not knowing since day one right down life's line..
