The "Seed" of Knowledge

One type of "seed" is knowledge.  We grow by taking in seeds of knowledge.

This growth comes from becoming familiar and gaining understanding through experience and study.  Another way of expressing this is that we gain knowledge through the process we call learning.

There is a great quote from Charles H. Spurgeon which brings light to the urgent need to pursue learning:  "Do not indulge the notion that you can be contented without learning, or learn without discipline....It is not a power that may be exercised naturally but a science to be acquired gradually."

Learning is a process.  It requires time, patience and commitment.  We are never too old to learn, and we should keep on learning as long as we live.
