UNKNOWN GUESSES
Oh yeah, we make all kinds of guesses -
unknown guesses - because often we have
little awareness - that’s what we are doing.
We judge, we guess, we figure out the
motives - the why another is doing what
she or he is doing - but it’s only a guess.
Wait! Often it’s really what we would be
doing in this very situation - and yet we
pin it - like the tail of a donkey - on the other.
The Talmud is right - when it says - “Teach
thy tongue to say, ‘I do not know.’” I don’t
even know that’s what I’m doing every day.
