Anyone good with English? Help!!?

got to read this one,





we are not ignorant like the forest people-our women spin wool on the wheel, our priests wear a white robe. we do not eat grubs from the tree, we have not forgotten the old writings, although they are hard to understand. Nevertheless, my knowledge and my lack of knowledge burned in me-i wished to know more. when i was a man at last, i came to my father and said " it is time for me to go on my journey. Give me your leave."





What does the Narrator Seek?
Anyone good with English? Help!!?
After reading this a few times I believe that the narrator is seeking his own identity, knowledge and his place in the world, seperate from the one he already knows.
Anyone good with English? Help!!?
Knowledge
Reply:His father's blessing to go seek out life's answers and meaning.
Reply:He seeks knowledge and to prove that his people are not savages.
