Wisdom of Not Knowing







There are many types of wisdom....from intellectual to emotional to physical intelligence. Yet, even deemed experts in their fields do not know all there is to know.


There is wisdom in not knowing. It is a true master who professes ignorance, for only an empty vessel can be filled. When we can admit that we don't know something, we can then open ourselves up to the opportunity to learn. We can then discover what lies beyond our current levels of understanding. There is real power in that.
