Why

My senior at Hogwarts, a Ravenclaw, explain my thoughts into words : 

" I feel like as I educate myself  more, i tend to share less. One factor might be that since I now understand that things are significantly more complex than I thought it was. I do not want to misinform people with partial knowledge unless they commit to a longer term engagement with back and forth clarification on things ( several hours of conversation )

Second slightly more influential factor would be  diminishing sense of novelty. While acquiring new knowledge, I tend to forget that my previous stored insights and information are still relevant to people and that as much as repetition are tiring. It's only in your head when your other audience never actually heard about it before.

Meanwhile, people who just get exposed to a quintessence of this knowledge (or lack thereof)  tend to share more , and pollute our overall understanding as society.
I feel like we can all benefit and have a more progressive collective intelligence if those we know more take the time to share it and endure repetitions (of stories, ideas, or lectures)  that they know would be useful in the long term - for civilization, humanity, and beyond.

Have a nice day, people. 💕 (Bonus foto me and my sister in 1998.)
