Somebody asks me, "What have you learnt in life so far?"

I have learnt a lot, nothing worth knowing or worth learning. And hence, I'm on the process of unlearning. This process doesn't feel like a process at all. Rather, it feels like a timeless journey. And to experiences timelessness is a gift, it's a beautiful thing one cannot put a price tag on. 

Learning can be bought. You can pay for it in many ways. I cannot help but devalue learning on this ground. But unlearning. It cannot be bought or taught. It's on you to tread that path not taken. In fact, people again will teach you not to unlearn. Have I regarded anything taught, that I must regard this teaching too? To not unlearn...? 

So if you have to ask me again, what have I learnt in life so far, my answer is -

I have learnt to not learn anything.
