In the contrary, personal knowledge is gained from one’s experience, education, and observation and is possessed by the individual. Although everyone develops…
Knowledge is insidious. The way it infiltrates the deep, dark crevices of the brain and balloons the ego within is pure evil. In the play, A Christmas Carol, wonderfully penned by Charles Dickens, Marley, a ghost who was miserly when alive, carries around chains attached to money boxes. These chains symbolize a burden to Marley, as he must reminisce on his life of greed every minute of the afterlife. Knowledge is a chain to me, due to the fact that I must answer everyone’s questions, constantly…

However, today knowledge is looked upon through a new lense as an investment in the future of humanity and society. Throughout history, knowledge has patently dissipated from being a burden to becoming beneficial. This is seen through greek myths, how education affects poverty, and various religions. Greek mythology has shown knowledge as a burden…

Knowledge can be gained through multiple ways like attending school,…
