Every journey must start from somewhere, most often that's from the Cave of Ignorance. Socrates gives us the 'Allegory of the Cave' in Plato's "Republic", a masterful lesson in the psychology of education and enlightenment. It's essential that we begin here so we can understand that examining our lives—stepping out of the cave—is a journey that will forever change our lives, never allowing us to return to the previous darkness of ignorance again.
