The Journey

Listening to Don Williams (along with Willie, perhaps the last of the living country singers worthy of only one name) recently I came across these lyrics from The Answer, a song of his I had not heard before.  I can’t determine who wrote the song:

The more I learn, the more I learn how little I know.  But I’m close to understanding just how far I have to go.  We give our hearts.  We take our chances.  And know the fool ain’t the one with all the questions.  To tell the truth, its someone who believes they have the answers.

It occurs to me that I am about there also, “there” being “close to understanding just how far I have to go.”
