There is so much I know, so much more that I know I don't know and then - There is so much that I still don't know that I don't know.

I agree. I have found that the more I learn, the more that there is to learn.
Education and experience bring to life a fascinating, complex, ever-expanding world.
I also agree with the people here who have said that those who think that they know it all know nothing. :-))

Sounds like you are getting much smarter. Thinking you know less and less is the mark of maturity and intelligence. As you get smarter you will know less & less. Remember it's 13-16 year olds that think they know everything. Mature people know better than that. Congrats. Your question demonstrates a lot of maturity. The more you learn the more you realize that you don't know.

Imagine ur knowledge is a sphere: when it is small the surface that connects with the unknown universe is also small. However, as it gets bigger, the contact surface will enlarge, therefore it is quite normal to come to the conclusion that the more u learn, the less u know. I believe it's a sign of progress.

Ask even the smartest person in the world and they will tell you they feel the same way. Our brains continue to learn all of our lives, but the world we live in has more information than we can ever learn in a life time.

That's the way it's supposed to be. And you'd be unhappy if it weren't that way.
You'd be saddened if there ever were a day when you knew everything and there were no more progress to be made. But don't worry. We'll be learning in ages to come.

Well, it could be that you're just now learning about all the questions that haven't been answer in just your area of expertise and recognize that there are many area where you have no expertise that have just as many questions. Or maybe thats just me.

"True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing.
And in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you the smartest of all."
*Socrates*
As you get older you realize what more is out in the world and just how little you know. This is part of growing older and wiser. :)

i noticed too
if you don't learn you have the feeling that you know sufficiently
but you must struggle to know more even if it's frustrating a little
there is also true that " you like more what you know"

Because you are beginning to realize anything could be anything.
