Knowing
<p>For what is understanding for?</p><p>If there be no knowledge,</p><p>And what is knowledge?</p><p>If there be no thoughts of wisdom.</p><p><br/></p><p>For knowledge dwells on wisdom, </p><p>And understanding knowledge is wisdom.</p><p>The wisdom of knowledge is understanding so.</p><p><br/></p><p>If I don't understand it, do I not know it?</p><p>If I don't know, is there no thought?</p><p>If there be no thought, there's no wisdom.</p><p><br/></p><p>Therefore, wisdom, knowledge, and understanding,</p><p>Are intertwined... Are dependent... Are woven wools, </p><p>Unto being.</p><p><br/></p><p>Now how possible is it that one doesn't know these things? </p><p>Very, very possible.</p><p>For being dwells on these very things,</p><p>And one can't be without the other.</p><p><br/></p><p>For you know does not mean you understand,</p><p>And because you understand does not mean you know,</p><p><br/></p><p>Hence, knowledge and understanding is what makes one wise,</p><p>And wisdom is knowing you must understand to know.</p><p><br/></p><p>What do you think?</p><p>What do you understand?</p><p>What do you know? </p><p><br/></p><p>I am a learner,</p><p>For I know nothing.</p>

Point is, because you know a word (for example) doesn't mean you understand when and how to use it... Context, Concept, Meaning, they all matter.
