Every time I learn, I grow and diminish at the same time. I grow in understanding, information, and even in making connections between/among facts, people, things, etc. I diminish in my strength of mind to grasp it all -- to put everything in its place -- to comprehend and see the meaning in everything.
I am human -- and am limited in being humbly and stupidly finite. I am small where even largeness would succumb to despair at its place in the "more and more largeness" of structures beyond myself.
I am at least large enough to know that I am not the largest, and small enough to grasp that I must and can still grow larger.
