Facts Don't Help Us Live

The earth revolves around the sun, but this does not explain what we should focus on.
There are hundreds of kinds of penguins, but this does not help us to love as we should love.
Multnomah County Library system has more than a million and a half materials, but this does not lead us closer to wisdom.
Yellowstone National Park has – acres, but that does not tell us who we are.
The Catholic Church used to determine saints through an adversarial system, but that does not teach us the lifestyle we should live
We kill bacteria with each breath, but this does not show us the way to love.
It takes money to make money, but that doesn’t drive us one inch closer to success.

Just because we know some truths, they won’t necessarily set us free.
