If I have led you to believe, by the words I have written, and the times we have shared together, that I am someone who has anything – let alone everything – figured out, then it is high time I apologised for this deception.
The truth is that I am just a ravenous child, hungry to know what it all means. Desperate to try and make sense of the world around me, because I can’t stop finding things that fascinate me, but frustrated because every new thing seems to throw what I learnt yesterday out of the window. I am cross-legged on the floor of the universe trying to assemble the jigsaw pieces of life at the same time as new ones keep showing up in the box.
It is this paradox that keeps me going. As Albert Einstein said “The more I learn, the more I realise I don’t know.”
Never think less of yourself because you don’t know the answers. Think highly of yourself for having the guts to ask the questions.
