Unthought knowns are those things we know about ourselves but forget somehow. They are the dreams we have lost sight of or the truths we sense but don’t say out loud. We may be afraid of acknowledging the unthought known to other people, maybe because we are worried about what they might think. Even more often, we fear what the unthought known will then mean for ourselves and our lives. We fear what the unthought known means we ought to do next.
