I Don’t Know, I Know

A common expression here in Australia that is slowly being picked up by my kids are the words ‘I know’. I have been telling my children to use it sparingly. We remind them that learning starts on acknowledging that you don’t know something. Certainly how can one learn something that is already known? It is funny that another notable expression around here is that which says ‘I don’t know’. I guess it all depends on when or how these expressions are used. When I was trying to learn the mechanics of blogging such as web hosting, I tell myself ‘I don’t know.’ But with the help of relevant tools, I can now say, ‘I know’.
