But it can be kind of liberating to accept that you cannot possibly be expected to know everything!
And then just say 'I don't know!'
:)

It sure is in a way :) but damn the ego that wont let life be easy :D

you know i thought when we grow older its easier to accept

i think you're right Meena LOL

Rambler.. umm may be when we get so old that we act like children.. then we are willing to say I dont know.. else ego comes in between.. dont you think ?

Agnes :)

hehe. i so agree with you here Meena! i mean, after a handful of i don't knows you yourself get so embarrassed with your simple headedness you simply can't say it any further. :)

you are right dear it is indeed very embarrassing though we actually have nothing to be embarrassed about no?

Well I have to disagree here.

My most common reply to any question is "I dont know"

But warning signals are blinking in my brain nowadays...
"Nikita where is ur tie???"
I dont know
"Naina why is ur shoe lying in the middle of the living room"
I dont know

:-o

....looks like I have to start setting an example

Ego thrives, concurs and fails. I am in the learning curve:-) But yes, I am not least abashed to admit 'I don't know' when I really don't:-)

And btw, Wanted to read your Love story. Just started. Sorry to be not keeping my word. A tad busy:-)
