Drop­ping Knowl­edge

Drop​ping​Knowl​edge​.Org invites you to “ask and answer ques­tions cov­er­ing social themes of global sig­nif­i­cance. When you ask in order to under­stand, and answer in order to share, that is what we mean by drop­ping knowledge.”

The ques­tions are all pro­foundly philo­soph­i­cal and very hon­est rel­e­vant ques­tions, and the answers come from peo­ple of vary­ing back­ground, cul­tures and eth­nic­ity. Because of that, answers are not just “sim­ple”. It allows the read­ers to see a lot of perspectives.

In a sense, this can be the world’s repos­i­tory of wis­dom– a think­ing man’s Answer​.Com. And we see through this that the world is a really com­pli­cated place.

Answer­ing the ques­tion DOES MARRIAGE REALLY BRING HAPPINESS?, nima­plant says:

My hus­band has brought me great hap­pi­ness. We mar­ried for­mally because his fam­ily and the soci­ety we lived in would not have been com­fort­able with our just liv­ing together. For both of us our mar­riage was in our hearts and that was enough. But when we did the for­mal mar­riage this solid­i­fied our rela­tion­ship. I felt a peace after­wards and a secu­rity due to the com­mit­ment. When our rela­tion­ship was for­mal­ized through mar­riage oth­ers around us also became more sup­port­ive of every thing we wanted to accom­plish. Our rela­tion­ship has been very lov­ing over the 30 years we’ve been together. In my husband’s arms I am at home. My hus­band is still my sweet­heart, my part­ner and my sup­port. I try to be as good as him, but he is really my bet­ter half.

But sctisha points out:

It brings hap­pi­ness if you have mar­ried the right per­son! ..and both of you have love and faith for each other…otherwise…marriage is like a pain which gets trig­gered now and then.

And the doc drops this bomb:

Only you can bring hap­pi­ness to your own life, only you can endeavor to bring hap­pi­ness to a rela­tion­ship. It is your choice as an indi­vid­ual to be joy­ful of mis­er­able about your exis­tance. If you expect hap­pi­ness to come from out­side sources you are trully pathetic, and will be doomed to a sad life, and be unfit for social rela­tion­ships. Hap­pi­ness must come from within, and then will be shown towards others.

We see dif­fer­ent and dif­fer­ing opin­ions in Drop­ping Knowl­edge and that is what makes this web­site really work. By allow­ing dif­fer­ent per­spec­tives and opin­ions, we come to an approx­i­ma­tion of TRUTH.

In the final analy­sis, truth is about that. It is see­ing things from all angles pos­si­ble. And mak­ing an informed choice. And that is what we mean by Drop­ping Knowledge.
