Knowledge is to know what is true about something. It is knowing the truth. The reason why knowledge is not just knowing things that are true or not is because if it is not true then you don't really know that thing. When people thought that the earth was flat, they thought that was true. They don't actually have knowledge or know that the earth is flat. It may have been a fact for them and they believed that it was true but it wasn't. A lot of people say knowledge is power and I agree with it. The more truths a person knows, the more they are in touch with reality and themselves. They don't exactly have more experience but in a way they do. They might not have gone through the actual experience but they know what to do or understand the situation. Knowledge does come through experience and it might take longer than others to understand the truth. The more someone goes through experiences the more truths they may understand. I also think that knowledge is not limited to just facts or physical things in nature like the sun is hot or the sky is blue. It can be extended to yourself. You can have knowledge of yourself. Knowledge is very important of one's self. You have to understand what is true about yourself and what you like. Experience also links into this because through experiences you understand more about yourself and understand what may make you happy and what may make you sad. These things are figured out through trial and error. You have to try something before you know you like it or not and once you do, you have the knowledge about yourself.
