SURPRISE

"Logic: The art of thinking and reasoning in strict accordance with the limitations and incapacities of the human misunderstanding."
~ Ambrose Bierce ~

Our knowing about things seems to come naturally-
We "have a feeling"
And that makes us certain that we're right.
And yet, our certainty does not guarantee our correctness.
As my friend Matt likes to point out,
We can be 100% certain about something and 100% wrong about it at the same time.
So where does that leave us?
Not knowing, 
More than we'd like to admit.
And that's where faith comes in,
And curiosity,
And the delight of
Surprise.

I know less than I think I do.
