I could go on for pages and pages about the things I’m unsure of: the economy, politics, algebra, being a husband, being a father, how planes stay in the air, how sound comes out of a radio, Speedos, why people are mean, imprinting of baby ducks, working on cars, Excel, why teenage girls spend so much time in the bathroom and you have to threaten young boys to make them take a bath, etc, etc….
I just start feeling stupid about all the things I don’t know.
So I began pondering today about the things that I am sure of; you know, things in which I’m confident or I have an unyielding love for. It’s a much shorter list. But it made me feel better.
Here it is.
