“How come we think we are irrefutably right all the time? What makes us show off our rightness so often? If we agree that we don't just perceive the world, but we frame it, we must admit that errors and misunderstandings arise. Due to the differences in lived reality, we become more open to dialogue and are less addicted to carved certainty. (Is it a bird? Is it a plane?)”

“Let us not live life in abstractions but in concrete moments.
If we want to exist, we must exist “with”, and that “with” is most relevant when we live related. Living with others enlightens the existential significance of our presence in the world. (“Better a good neighbor than a faraway friend.”)”
― Erik Pevernagie

“Every so often, we see many people feel uncomfortable with facing the truth. The truth seems to be a brittle deer. We should, however, not fear the fragility of truth, for it creates openness to correction, learning, and growth. It fosters empathy, making inquiry, curiosity, and wisdom possible. Truth becomes less about possession and more about pursuit. (Is it a bird? Is it a plane?)”

“Is our life not like a ship assembled for action? Strong in frame, flexible in sail. We ensure that it listens to the wind, reads the currents, and adjusts the sails. When we can blend rational compass and existential challenges, we hold the wisdom to steer us out of shipwrecks or chaos.( "Ruling the waves" )”
