A few
months back I came across an interesting entry by a blogger. She was
responding to some unpleasant comments in her blog. In my opinion,
she had handled all the comments brilliantly. Instead of being
emotional, she chose to answer in a plain and simple way which I
found to be so inspiring and to an extent reflecting her moral
excellence.One of the comments was quite cynical. It said, "You
write as if you know about everything. However, at times you seem to lack certain knowledge.'' The following was her humble response :
"This
is my idea of writing. I write about the things I know. It will then
lead me to other things that I do not know. Then, I share. It is like
sharing a few bowls of porridge with your neighbours. When they
return the bowls, the bowls come back with different dishes. That is
how you add to your knowledge. Nevertheless, I may not have the
knowledge that you have or the answers to your questions for
knowledge is like the sea, the more you swim, the wider it gets. That
is the reason why there will always be questions that I might not be
able to answer and also things that I do not know of ."
