For those who are seeking to know in what way they may attain what they desire, I find that the sharing of ideas and other benefits is helpful, and I do try to educate my children and others when it is appropriate according to the gifts I have so far received.  I simply do not know everything myself, and I would like to avoid being completely wrong.

AND ON, AND ON
With whom does one relate? How secure are your peers and associates? Are you confident in what you say or do? Do you continue to learn? You see the more we know, the more we know we don't know very much; the more we appreciate criticism; the more we grow intellectually and socially. We hope those of whom you speak understand this.

Straightforward
It has more to do with self image. We hide from the world that which we don't want others to see, our failings, insecurities, and varied foibles. Some shirk from the spotlight fearing others will see their "obvious" shortcomings. The know it alls plow ahead pretending their shortcomings don't exist, believing their "superior" knowledge will blind and bedazzle onlookers to the point they won't ever notice them.
