Another thing I’d like to throw out there is that I want to release trying to be right and just try to be true. Is there a difference? I don’t know, but the perspective feels different for me. And it changes the conversation. There is more of a responsibility when true-ness is on the line.
I can’t believe that I literally thought for a time in my life that I could, with observation and keeping my mouth shut for a time, never be wrong. I really did believe that I was always right… what a bunch of crap. This is definitely not true, that someone is always right.
So is it true or not true? I guess that is a good question to hold and one that moves one out of argumentation and into real contemplation. And can one be true and not right, or right and not true?
