Entender o universo, ainda que de maneira errada, faz nos
sentirmos “em casa” no mundo e é por isso que buscamos conhecer. Mas será que o
que desejamos é realmente conhecimento?



Não é incomum escutar alguém dizer que não entende algo que acabou
de explicar, porém como é possível não entender aquilo que já nos foi apreendido?
Simples: A pessoa entende, mas o que ela quer é aceitar aquilo que entendeu.



A analise honesta de um fenômeno pode algumas vezes produzir
conforto mas deve-se ter em mente que isso não é sempre consequência do saber,
pois o universo não é uma caixa de diazepam cuja finalidade é aliviar sua
ansiedade e, acredite, não serão poucas as vezes que conhecer e decepcionar-se
estarão consequentemente ligados.



O supracitado pode parecer uma lamuria, no entanto é
logicamente explicável: Não amamos as coisas ou as pessoas. Amamos a nós mesmos
refletidos nas coisas e/ou nas pessoas e vivemos enxertando a nossa
subjetividade no mundo para que o ato de viver torne-se mais agradável. No
entanto a realidade é totalmente impessoal e o universo não se “importa” se você
é pobre, negro, latino ou deprimido. O problema é todo seu. E como não há nada
de nós nas coisas a lisura intelectual nos conduzirá a uma torrente de
decepções.



Então, caro leitor, quando disseres que desejas “a verdade”
pergunte a si mesmo se desejas conhecimento ou paz na alma, pois uma coisa pode
negar a outra.
