okay. i'm in the middle of writing two essays for my college apps. one of the essays is very, very abstract and hard 4 me 2 answer. The prompt is as follows:

"French novelist Anatole France wrote: 'An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't.' What don't you know?"

I am stumped. I feel ridiculous and stupid trying to answer this. i have written as follows:

"I don’t know how to take a compliment. I don’t know how to keep from taking something too far. I don’t know how far I can go in my education. I don’t know how to look at the world through rose-colored glasses. I don't know the meaning of life. I don’t know how to answer this prompt."

...can someone help me? my brain is about to implode and i've been freaking out over this stupid, stupid essay. I'm in tears out of frustration. How the hell am I supposed to move mountains with that sort of a prompt!?
