Teach Me

A person once said "Not only know thyself, Know where you have been, Know where you are going, Know the place of 'all knowing,' Know the present moment." As a student I do not care to study about the intermolecular attractive forces of compounds. I want to study people. I do not care to study where on the Unit Circle does Sine have a value of negative one. I want to study people. I do not care to study what type of rhetorical devices Henry David Thoreau uses in his essay "Civil Disobedience." I want to study people. I want to study people, cultures, and the development of languages and societies. I want to study the Romans, the Greeks, and the ancient ways of the Aztecs and Mayans.Teach me about myself. The reasoning behind the way I think, talk, and act. Teach me about me, about humanity. Teach me about my past, my present, and my future. Teach me about life. Teach me, please teach me, something about myself.
