on being wrong

a simpler realization i'd like to share. i've found that often the mind tricks us into believing we are oh, so right about a thought process, a stance, when really we are only terribly mistakenly attached. we don't give up no matter what. at such an occasion, i have found rather serendipitously, the most liberating of all feelings is to be had by allowing oneself to say to the other: "you are absolutely right".

(nb: do so only when your wits are about you and they recognize somewhere deep down that the other is indeed right :).)
