Yeah, but
look at it this way:
No one knows everything or
what’s going on in someone else’s life
world
head
heart.
I know you don’t want to play this game -- you’re afraid you might lose
and you will if you assume you know for certain,
if you talk in absolutes.
Consider, for a moment, your human brain -- the fallible method by which you register everything.
Consider the lack of sleep you got last night,
the amount you have had to drink,
your aging body,
the parents who raised you,
your b r o k e n heart,
the anger rising in your chest,
the person you are trying to be but just haven’t become…
maybe there’s a chance you’re wrong.
