Passing interest, weak impression

The power and weakness of eaily gained knowledge, is the weak impression it leaves. I will often follow my curiosity through articles and scholarship on a topic. And when it is done, all i’m left is a bit light connection to the topic, something just out of grasp that I need to reach for if I want to recall the details later.

I tried to answer the daily prompt, but I had already answered it, and several others. I guess the list isn’t that long here at WordPress. Draining the well after nearly a year of this.
