Internet Vs Wisdom Find Truth In The Noise

Now, if you go on the Internet, you can find the answer to any question on the planet, but you can't get any wisdom because you're not talking to a person. So we have people out here. So so let me reframe this for up until now. We've been able to have wisdom and we've been able to have information melded together, but it was always from one perspective. Now what's changed is we can get information from multiple perspectives without a whole lot of wisdom. So there's a lot of sorting out that has to be done. So now we've had one extreme to the other with the door swung one way, the door is now going the other. And at some point in time, we'll meet in the middle. And I think it starts with teaching people about the messaging and what they're seeing and how they're seeing it, how they're affected by it. No different. I mean, it's psychological nutrition that you're consuming every time you're looking at a screen. Do you want candy or do you want something that's going to be helpful to you? So once you, We understand that now that people have all this information from all these different perspectives, not all of it is healthy. They need to pick through it. Then we come back to a center and we'll have some wisdom, but it would be wisdom with more information. So I think we're getting to the right place. I don't think we should necessarily fight change, but we should definitely be aware that if we're not making our own decisions, we can't get to that hive mind based in logic. Right now, we have hive minds in our country that are all, everything is emotional. Everything is based on what buttons can be pushed. And when that's, when you're in that state, you're just being controlled, you know, protect your mind, control your emotions. If you're not controlling your emotions, you're definitely not protecting your mind. If that, if that makes any sense. No, that makes sense. I mean, we're talking, you know, in society and here on the show about the black lives matter movement and social justice and not from a point of, of rejection, but you know, we've had artists on, we've had, a variety of people who talk from a variety of points of view on this problem because no one person has the answer, you know, it turns out. But one of the things that I have discovered is that if you actually care, if black lives actually matter to you, then you should have an understanding of the problem. You can't just stop at emotion as you're suggested, because when you start to bring race into a logical problem, it rots the logic out. because there's no room for anything else. If I was to say, you know, Boone, you're a racist. What do you now say to that? You go, no, I'm not. And they're like, it doesn't matter. It's over. Conversation's over because the emotion and the race took over. So you don't get to even have a rigorous conversation to develop some wisdom, right? I mean, I'm desperate to develop wisdom, right? I'm middle-aged. This is the time for me to take my experience and synthesize it into some kind of good counsel for people and to continue to expand that in the show. And, you know, you have a show, you gather so much knowledge. How do you process that into, you know, cogent thoughts that are filled with wisdom? But I don't know that people are prepared to work that hard to get wisdom as a norm. And I think that's always been true, but how does one gather wisdom? How does one get away from, you say protect, you know, avoid emotion, protect the mind, but how does one actually do that? How does one gather wisdom? Well, first, I think it's typically from an elder that can understand your situation and the nuances of your situation. That's the problem with seeking information. When people need wisdom, they're getting information from the internet. So they don't have someone that's older than them who understands them, who's a family, who understands the nuances of their personality, their circumstances, their situation. That's where you get wisdom from.
