Nothing is as it seems.

We humans have a tendency to make assumptions without verifying, then wondering why it feels like we cannot move forward. So even if something really seems to be a certain way – whether it’s horrific or perfect – make no assumptions. Make no assumptions about other people. Have no opinion until you make sure it’s true. Ask, verify, find out before you speculate or assume anyone or anything to be a certain way.

In this way, you can ride right down the middle of the situation and be the source of elegance, grace and peace.
