"Not always so."
Story about always responding with "We shall see."
Be open to how things unfold.
Sometimes are difficulties are blessings.
"I am" statements are usually delusional.
How can I look at this in a different way?
When in conflict, doubt the view you have of the other person.
If you're stuck, there's always a way through.
