If only you saw how little you knew, how fragile your model was, how many assumptions you rest upon, how many unfalsifiable claims are inherent to your mental structure

If only you saw that you inherit most of what you know from a hive mind that doesn’t select for truth

If only you, for even a brief glimpse, saw the “water” you swim in, and the alternatives that might possible be true

If only you saw the hollowness of epistemology

You would be overcome with a humility and patience in all things
