burden of knowledge
.
A man whose head gets bigger every time he takes a step...
He used to understand nothing... But now, as he walks, he learns and knows everything...
I ask him, "What happens when your head becomes bigger than the world? "
He stops, unsure, and says he doesn’t know...
So, he keeps walking to find out...
I ask, "What happens when your head is bigger than the universe?"
His eyes look empty, but he keeps going,.. wanting to learn the answer...
Finally,
I ask, "What happens when your head is bigger than all of existence?"
He yells, "I don’t know!"
and starts walking faster... desperate to know...
I ask, "Doesn’t it hurt to have such a big head?"
He says, "It hurts more not to know."
