Knowledge of Knowledge
Again with the excellence or arete. But this time we went in depth and really discussed the greek places of politics like the agora the meeting place for all government meetings. We also discussed the great Greek Socrates. He was a classic greek philosopher who was a stonemason at a young age. He was poisoned by drinking Hemlock. Not only did we talk about Greek meanings of things we talked about us being the upper end on the knowledge scale of living things. For example Dogs don't understand that one day they will die and they need to live the life to the fullest. They think life goes on forever until their sick and they know its near end. But us as humans we know one day we will die and we need to live life to the fullest which brings us to arete or excellence. A Message To Garcia is a perfect comparison to this because you need to live life the best you can not just to the standards exceed the standards.
