RE: Building on a House of Cards

[valued-customer]

Upon challenging beliefs we inherited from our parents, culture, or society in general, we can find our minds akin to a game of Jenga. I suffered terrible grief when I realized that things I would have - that I did - stake my life on, were utterly false.

While the horror of realizing everything I had worked all my life for was a lie was unalloyed agony, that was a price I paid for constructive criticism. The truth I bought with that suffering I would never relinquish. It is why I diligently seek criticism today: so that I can discard false beliefs before I invest decades of work in, pledge my faith to, and defend with my life scurrilous lies.

Nothing is more valuable than reality.

Thanks!

Yes, we should all want to be right, for the sake of avoiding what's wrong, not faulty arrogance of thinking we're right just to feel good about being right ;)
