All the Things
For as long as I can remember, I’ve suffered from a condition where I assume that if I know something, everyone else must know it too.
I think it stems from the feeling that I’m not especially knowledgeable, nor do I think I’ve had a novel existence (no really, I haven’t).
In fact, as I’ve aged I’ve come to relize that I know less and less, by the second it seems! Perhaps, because of that I still fall into the trap of assuming others benefit from a shared context with me.
