Because there are no stupid questions, or something like that, I need some clarification about a thing I wondered about since the first time someone made me aware of the terms. One day, someone called me a “dumbass.” A few days later, someone called me a smartass for doing the same thing.
Is there a hierarchy involved with these terms, where I’m a dumbass if the guy saying it is smarter than me, and am a smartass if the guy is dumber than me?
When I look back on concepts that I no longer believe but once accepted without question, the change feels abrupt. However, upon closer examination, the shift was gradual. It was rather like a game of pick up sticks, where one by one, I withdrew my assumptions until the whole edifice crumbled
I love this. I wrote in a song once, "heaven is a place where we all find out how wrong we were." The ability to realize we can be wrong about our deeply held beliefs takes a lot of strength, and the only way to get around it is through the eyes of others, who could also be wrong about their deeply held beliefs. Looking forward to hearing more about the trust assembly.
