The more I know, the more I know how much I don’t know

I had my birthday couple of weeks back. For people who wished me, thanks a ton & it truly made me feel special!

How old am I? Old enough to want to hide it.

This birthday marks differently from the other birthdays so far… to my very own surprise, I am tired of making new resolutions. Most of my resolutions are born out of my dreams. How will my dreams come true if I don’t wake up? Huh?

This blog reflects my state of mind – feeling grown up. I finally understand why grown-ups are more confused than the kids. 

I am amidst of starting a new and exciting marketing project, I had many brilliant ideas and felt so proud of myself when I submitted the plan to my boss. It was my brain child. The plan was born out of my own thoughts and ideas. If you ask me to judge the plan I would say it was comprehensive and crisp. I gave myself a pat on the back and went ahead with the project. Well, the bewilderment started when I  began reading more and gathering new information- I felt lost, I panicked and was less confident about my work. Its true that my work contained great information but now (Gulp!!) I know all the holes that existed my plan.  Truly sometimes knowing less is good!

That was in the work scenario…a similar situation in my personal life too. Next month, my marriage would complete 3 years. Thank god the “troublesome 2″ is phasing out! Oh yeah, like to the babies, it applies to marriage too!! When I got married to Adit, we had dated for 5 years. And I honestly was confident about knowing all about him BUT hey, hell no! Marriage is full of surprises and err…shocks. The more I knew him, the more I knew how less I knew him!

But the silver lining is that I am old enough to understand that feeling like I know less will keep me going! It keeps my ears and eyes open to absorb more. Let me go now- there is so much to learn!
