"The world is gravitating towards perfection." + My thirst to acquire wisdom.
.
The first concept I understood as a child was the meaning of the word "wisdom".
My main task in my life, so far, has been to acquire wisdom.
.
At the age of eight i became the youngest member at the Bergen Golf Club, clubhouse 300 meters from my home. I always had been looking for lost golf balls to sell and at the age of ten I tried my luck as caddy for the local elite AND I didn't like it. I think it was then I got my lack of trust in really, really rich people...
At the age of thirteen I suddenly had the form of my life and played a front nine in 37 strokes, 4 over par. - And then played the back nine in 63 or 29 over par...
.
(Sensored.)
.
I think it was at THAT moment I decided that I would spend as much time as possible to acquire wisdom - and then spend the rest of my life helping third world countries to rid themselves of their problems.
The first thing of wisdom I got that day was never to trust anyone blindly. NEVER EVER!
Other little brothers - and little sisters - who trusted their, IS Arabic, big brothers never got that wisdom because they were blown up together with the suicide west the big brother got them to wear and use...
.
I started traveling the world alone from the age of 16 - after selling my golf clubs and working weekends at the dock unloading and loading ships from the age of 15. For some reason several of the dock workers were highly educated people who actually found it fulfilling and interesting working the docks and gaining wisdom from the bottom of working society.
Later I traveled to more remote places on long journeys in Asia and Africa. And THEN, in 1988, I became a cyclist and by 2008 I had become "NFL" Norway's Foremost Long distance cyclist with more than 150.000 kilometer cycled abroad - on six bike rides between 1988 and 2008.
.
But what did I tell people when asked why I bothered to come to " the dullest place on Earth" - their own home village? I would reply:
"At even the dullest village it is possible for me to acquire wisdom because the contrast between dull and exiting creates a friction within me that generates wisdom..."
.
Now at the age of 56 I am fully capable of unloading my wisdom, but not on a third world country as planned, but rather on my own country, Norway.
