You Know Nothing

Alice chases her rabbit down the rabbit hole. I see now that this bewilderment of sense which follows is just the analogy for the chaotic mess of the working, entropic mind. Understanding and knowledge are warrens for the conscious mind to chase concepts through; small portals from the surface which expand and grow in complexity the further down you go. The further you go, the more you realise the infinite nature of Human Comprehension, and therefore the futility of seeking “Complete Knowledge”.

I will be chasing my metaphorical rabbit for as long as I exist, and I will never catch it.
