Doubting Thomas - by Caravaggio


DOUBTS

I doubt.
Therefore I am.

I better have doubts.
Is this water okay?
How old is this mayonnaise?
Does this medicine have side effects?
Who is this person hanging around
my daughter? What does he want?
Is this the best price?
Is there life on the other side of this?

I’m certain.
Therefore I am.

I have certainties.
This car is safe.
This horse can really run.
Home insurance is smart.
My wife loves me.
I trust this doctor.
The sun will come up tomorrow.
I believe. Therefore I have some certainty.

I am.
Therefore I think.
