It doesn't get harder . . .

 

You know nothing but want something. You know something & believe you can get what you want & when you know everything you understand that you will get nothing. 

You give something in order to get to know something. You give what you want to get & you get 0(nothing). You give for the sake of giving & someone tells you something that is/means everything.

You want something and learn how to get it. You now know something that can give you something but you don’t take it in order to maintain your peace of mind.

I like the parting shot: Maintaining one's peace of mind is a cornerstone of Epicurean philosophy (widely misunderstood as sheer hedonism--which tends to be VERY bad, in its consequences, for peace of mind). I also enjoy the conundrum:

"When you know everything you understand that you will get nothing."

It gets easier...later.

This is a unique documentation of a byzantine labyrinth of Brobdingnagian proportions stemming from an attempt to simplify overly complicated conditions.
Or....Aha! A loop in the code!
