The Art of being wrong

In Tews' day's mailbox...

Today is the 96th anniversary of the birth of Thich Nhat Hanh, in Quang Ngai, Vietnam (1926). “Thay” as he was addressed by his followers, died in January this year.

…there are moments we come to when our thinking is suspended, and when an old knowing has been dropped and the attachment to a new knowing has not yet arisen. That gap is everything....we love the moments in narratives of all kinds—stories, movies, epics, plays, novels, TV shows—when … people are proven categorically to be wrong...being wrong can, and often does, bring us closer to being right. – Henry Shukman

"When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending." ― Thich Nhat Hanh
