Hear hear!
One thing I've learnt through my journey in life... is that one is never too old to learn! That often means asking questions or expressing opinions which, to some, appear simple/ stupid. But that is part of the learning curve. One should not be discouraged by detractors.I am reminded of one definition of 'expert': ex... has-been. spurt.... drip under pressure). A lot of real experts decline the tag. One great sage even went so far as to say: if on one's journey through life, one meets a person who calls oneself 'buddha'... quickly kill him.
Regards.
