I don't know what " I knew what I meant to say" mean. Could you explain it to me?
The most useful thing I brought out of my childhood was confidence in reading. Not long ago, I went on a weekend self-exploratory workshop, in the hope of getting a clue about how to live. One of the exercises we were given was to make a list of the ten most important events of our lives. Number one was : "I was born" and you could put however you liked after that. Without even thinking about it, my hand wrote at number two : "I learning to read" "I was born and learned to read" wouldn't be a sequence that occurs to many people, I imagine. But I knew what I meant to say. Being born was something done to me, but my own life before when I first made out the meaning of a sentence.
