First Unity Community Challenge - The Most Important Knowledge To Me

Gradient Welcome to the Team Greeting Facebook Post.png

No thief, however skillful, can rob one of knowledge, and that is why knowledge is the best and safest treasure to acquire
Quote by L. Frank Baum


Knowledge, once gotten can't easily go away (Although, it's possible with dementia patients huh?) Well, that's by the way. From birth, one is bound to know from the most little things to the most important things. There is no way a person can grow without having a knowledge about so many things. A child learns how to crawl, walk and talk... Those are all knowledge they can't grow without.

Every knowledge is important and useful for our living but we can't deny the fact that there are rankings to what we know and wish to know. Even though I won't be of the opinion that one should know everything, it's best to never stop getting knowledge of different things and aspects of life.

Learning never ends, they say and that means gaining knowledge shouldn't have a stop so long one is alive. A friend of mine sometime ago once told me that he wish he could get the knowledge every person in this world had, so he could be the most wisest and become the first man with all the knowledge in the world.

He may have sounded funny back then but thinking about it now, would that action really make him great? I've seen cases where too much knowledge gotten in the wrong way caused mental issues 😂 so I guess that would have been his case if it had happen.

I think I'm going out of point now, back to the question... What is the most important knowledge?

There are trillions of knowledge in the world today, saying one is the most important is like "removing a tiny stain from a total messed up dress" I hope that wasn't a too awkward way to make my point 😅 I'm saying it isn't an easy question considering the fact that there are knowledge we're yet to find out for ourselves.

Anyways, I've thought about this and one knowledge that can't stop coming to mind after much thoughts happens to be the most important to me. Before I tell you what it is, you should know that it doesn't have to be the most important to you (it is for me) and I'll love to know more about your most important knowledge... Learning never ends, remember?

Knowing One's Essence of Living

We can only ever know ourselves, and by doing so honestly, we come to know the world
Quote by Jen Knox


The knowledge of our Creator, his wonderful works on earth, a supernatural being, his unlimited knowledge and love, his plans for humanity... All that are knowledge that every person should have so long they could read and understand or watch and understand... Either ways, it's a must get knowledge (from my perspective).

While that is an important knowledge, I still feel knowing oneself and the essence of living is more important. As this knowledge will also mean you knowing why you were created by the Mighty maker. I don't know for others but this is not just the most important knowledge to me, it is also the most difficult knowledge to gain.

From when I was little to I was about 18 or so, I had no knowledge of who I really am... I'm serious about that. It's not like I know myself well now but I've come to know a lot about myself after studying, communicating and learning to know people around me. That is one secret I've learned, you know people, feel excited, get heartbroken, face real challenges and you learn a thing or two about yourself.

Gaining the knowledge of oneself won't be easy if one is locked up in his or her own way of thinking, trying to be your own self in the most secluded way you could think of. I've always thought that being on my own will help me gain knowledge about who I really am. While that could help to some extent, there would be more results when people see you for who you are and you learn from what they say about you.

If I could know myself totally (which I don't think it's possible to some extent), that would be a very valuable knowledge to me. Because one's knowledge about oneself goes a long way in knowing more about what life presents.

Know yourself first, other knowledge comes in after.


This is my response to The Challenge organized by @anttn in his new community Unity towards freedom and I'll like to invite @hopestylist @nkemakonam89 to participate.

You've said a lot of things that now makes me wonder what is truly the most important knowledge to me. Knowing oneself is a good knowledge and it would be a lot easier to gain more knowledge when we have knowledge about ourselves.

Thank you so much for the invitation, I will check it out.

Hello @merit.ahama ! Thanks you really much for this incredible and introspective article as an answer to this first challenge :) I really enjoyed reading and learning more about how you see the world (still a bit ^^), but yet that's already a lot if we think that few days ago we were complete strangers !

He may have sounded funny back then but thinking about it now, would that action really make him great? I've seen cases where too much knowledge gotten in the wrong way caused mental issues 😂 so I guess that would have been his case if it had happen.

That's funny because I kind of thought the same when I was younger but I don't anymore at all ^^ The more I learn the more I know that I know so little and that makes me happy now.

That is one secret I've learned, you know people, feel excited, get heartbroken, face real challenges and you learn a thing or two about yourself.

It's so true. You've to see people in every state to know them truly as well as ourself !

I agree with that knowledge you choose and seemed to choose you as well ;) This is for sure one of the master ones !

Thanks again for your great participation here as for your engagement. By the way, I'm sorry to answer so lately !! Things are getting a bit rushed with the start of the school year ^^

I hope you're well, take care ☀️

I think a philosopher once said, The more you know, the lonelier you become or something like that. Too much knowledge can be detrimental to our mental health.

Knowledge of oneself is indeed precious knowledge to acquire no matter how hard it is and no matter how long it takes.

Interacting with people also goes a long way in helping you to know more about yourself but I'm not trying to say that you should listen to the world and be who they want you to be. Be YOURSELF and live your life the proper way, interact with the right people and also learn from them 🙂

Nice one @merit.ahama 👍. I didn't know how I missed the tag notification, apologies, my dear, 🙏 Thanks for the invite, though👍🤗 😊😊🥰.

Awww Nkem 🤗🤗🤗
Glad to have you here, of course we've got to be who we want to be and not what the world wants us to be.

It's actually more difficult to be what we're not 🥲

It's fine, you can always participate in the future challenges to come. Thanks for stopping by still ❤️

Yep. In a way the voice of the world can be a pointer in the right direction. I mean criticisms enable us work more on ourselves and craft but it does not mean we should change or rebrand ourselves. You are right there.

I definitely agree with you on this 100%. We cannot completely know ourselves, even if we choose to isolate ourselves, just for the sole purpose of understanding 'us' better. This was a good read.

Knowledge is a gem and no thief can rob it of us. I do agree that knowledge about oneself goes a long way.

Thanks for this aspiring knowledge shared.

This is hitting the nail on the head. For one to discover himself, he has to be exposed to know what he can or can't tolerate. He has to be exposed to many devices to be able to pick what works for him. He has to be able to fall to get back up and learn. All this cannot be achieved in seclusion. I came in through Dreemport!

Having knowledge of oneself is very essential, and more so, your essence.

It's easy to say, I exist in this world, however if you don't know the essence of your existence, then it is as though you are moving at a direction you don't even know.
