"Modern science is based on the Latin injunction ignoramus - 'we do not know'. It assumes that we don't know everything. Even more critically, it accepts that the things we think we know could be proven wrong as we gain more knowledge. No concept, idea or theory is sacred and beyond challenge". - Yuval Noah Harari. This blog is a documentation of my journey of enlightenment, knowledge, and the pursuit of physical and emotional well-being.

Japan 1941: Countdown to Infamy - Eri Hotta
This was a great book that described Japan's entry into World War 2. The narrative revolved mainly around Prime Minister Konoye and the cabinet's conflicted opinions about entering into war with the United States and Russia. I really enjoyed this book, despite being long. I now better understand Japan's expansionist position and how they led the population to believe in a lot of different and many untrue things.
