My foolish ways.

I sometimes get to know people by misjudging them. Initially. Eventually, I get it right. Thing is, I form opinions. On little evidence. I reach tentative conclusions. Because I’m on an expedition. An exploration. I’m feeling my way. That’s the nature of life. I don’t fully know what I’m seeing. And feeling. Never knowing if I have it completely right. Gotta admit that I could be wrong. About everything. But that doesn’t stop me from proceeding. I’m not afraid to make mistakes. To make the wrong guesses. Making a fool of myself. I take solace in being foolish. Because it’s often funny. Worth a laugh. I find that most people tend to be foolish. Very foolish. So in that sense, I’m like most everyone else. –Jim Broede
