Some of the best advice I've received is to question what I think I know about people. Many don’t know, but they think they know. (And, they like to talk about what they think they know.) It’s a dangerous supposition in relationship to others to act upon what you think you know about them without solid, unshakable, and conclusive verification. Be careful to examine what you think you know. Giving the benefit of the doubt is a very good place to be when it comes to what you hear about others and what you think about others. An old adage goes like this: “Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.” There is wisdom in this old saying. I personally have mis-stepped in this department. I’ll bet you have too.
