Being brutally honest, I forgot the original plan of this page, but I think I have a rough idea how it came to in the first place. To understand. To explain. To share.
Those were three different statements, and the order was meant to be. Why not explain first then understand? Right, good question. Now I understand that this page, and the page to the left of this is not to be meddled with anytime soon. In basic, this page will stay as it is, so this should be a statement that will stick to the mind and last. Okay, okay back to the question.
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough" - Albert Einstein
Now I'm not saying that I agree to this statement, but it holds a part truth. Which is why understand came first. You would not be able to explain an instruction if you don't understand the instructions yourself. You cannot apply an instruction verbally to someone if you haven't got the faintest idea of how the clock works.
But someone would need to explain it to you first, right? No. Simple as that. Cavemen did not have an instructor telling them how to make fire, how to keep warm, how to erm, make kids. They found out about all of these things through experience. They would have experimented, being curious as they are, with the world around them. The last part is sharing. This is a crucial part. After such discoveries, you should not hold pride and take all the credit, because it is very narrow-minded. You share your discoveries among your circle, because just maybe someone has a sharper idea of how to do something quicker, or whatever would make it more efficient. They won't be able to come up with this idea if you haven't told them.
Right, the loving part. This is not in the context of embracing a loved one. This is application of knowledge. This is letting your curiosity gets the better of you.
This, is having a go at everything and trying out the different things, and failing, and then re-trying the same stuff differently.
