Placed on a pedestal

Understanding is forged through the interpretation and classification of information the mind gleans from the world. The colored sphere represents the world; the box, the world deconstructed and pieced into something more concrete. Understanding arises from a base of questons-- without questions we would not understand the world. We hold the product of these questions, a worldview consisting of the knowledge we gain from life, sorted logically and uniformly, and place it far above the beautiful chaos of the world's mysteries.
