The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds. – John F. Kennedy
This feels true more and more as I get older.
As I look back it’s clear that my blind spots were bigger than I could have imagined.
It’s hard sometimes not to see the ignorance and give up on the pursuit of knowledge.
To resign myself to the fate of never really understanding enough to make the decisions I’d like to make.
Instead I’m working to be more thankful. Thankful for loved ones, friends and colleagues that are able to look past my ignorance and blindness and love me anyway. Thankful for the opportunity to grow and do better.
I’m also thankful for friends who are willing to show and tell me when those blind spots are there. To point out where maybe (just maybe) I’ve made a poor decision or appear to be heading in the wrong direction.
Make it a great day.
Jake
