Not Knowing

At my recovery meeting tonight, as sometimes happens, a fellow spoke at some length who had thirty years in recovery.  He spoke for a long time and had the tone that he knew what the answers were for other people in recovery.  I, also, have been in recovery for many years and because of my recovery program and numerous other sources, I have learned many things.  I see the world quite differently than I used to and one of the things that I now realize is that I know next to nothing about what is really going on in the world around me.  I know enough to know that I know very little.
