You always think you are right. Even when you think you're wrong, you think you're right about being wrong....

So if deep down you always think you are correct, and you know you can make mistakes (and you don't need a book to tell you you're fallible), how can you justify any static conviction with any strong degree of certainty? You only ever convince yourself of how convinced you are of something. Why not accept something as an *apparent* truth and let go of it if it stops fitting?

    I have no certainty of anything. Not even this statement. I accept truth as it comes and if I find it is wrong I dismiss it and keep searching for the real truth.

    Why should I bother to try and answer a question like this? I don't stand a chance. I digress. You are right! :)

    Anyway, much of the time I struggle with feeling my answers are wrong, so I try to think a lot before I respond. Unless of course, I want cream in my coffee. I have never been wrong on that one.

    I'm always open to a better way. I know what's right for me, I don't profess to know what is right for you, or anyone else, nor do I force my beliefs on anyone, my words are here for your entertainment and consideration. Accept or reject them as you choose.
