i ROBERT MClSIKflNTOW, Ph.D. psychologist for th« Family Sorvico and Community Mantal Health Cantor for McHanry County (Editor's note: This is another article in the Today's Psychology weekly series of especially written articles for McHenry County readers. The topic this week is "Uncertainty".) For most of us, un­ certainty and confusion are states of mind which are labeled as negative. We place a high value on knowledge and become uncomfortable when our knowledge appears to be inadequate to meet the challenge of a new situation. What is not realized is that uncertainty is the beginning of learning. For as long as one believes that he knows MMV/Ul U OltUUklVti, t.HO very belief acts as a barrier to new learning. Such a mind, closed to the new, can become stagnant like a pond that never receives fresh water. It is like a broken record player, everlastingly playing the same song. Life is always new. Its only consistancy is everlasting change: For as «rr'ancient- philosopher OHCf^aid'Yyou can never step into the same river twice." In the same way, each moment of life is different than any other that has ever occurred or ever will occur. When we refuse to allow ourselves not to know, we do not observe the people and things around us as they are. Instead, we observe our own thoughts and concepts and never bother to check them •Vith was Hie last time you really looked and listened to your spouse or one of your parents. You think you already know them so you rarely bother to deeply pay attention to them. Perhaps you might like to try an experiment. Next time you are talking with someone that ybu know well, pretend that they are complete strangers. You have never met them before but you are interested in understanding them. Put aside everything you know about them and observe and listen to them without allowing thoughts to come between you and the person you are observing. You may find that you meet them for the first time.
