For what I lack, I find.
For what I find, I study.
For what I study, I understand.
But for what I understand, I lack.

I judge others.
They judge me.
I seek to understand.
They seek to understand me.

For many, face value is enough.
For me, face value can deceive.
Because true understanding can only be derived through knowledge.
But knowledge comes at a price.

And that price is me.
