I Don't Know

For my entire life, I have answered people's questions. When they ask "Why?", I give an answer. Sometimes I am asked why other people do what they do. I still give an answer. Sometimes the answer is a true fact and sometimes it is speculation. Usually, when I speculate, it is to make the other person look better or seem more sensible. From now on, I am not doing that. It is a hard habit to break. From now on, I will only answer for myself. If I know the answer I will say it. If I don't I will just say, "I don't know". Cut and dry, no follow up words.
