The problem with never admitting you are wrong is that you can never be right. You can only be right when you KNOW right from wrong. When you are so far down your rabbit hole you believe everything you tell yourself no one can reach you but you. And you don't even know your self anymore.
I am often and have been wrong many times. I say I am right so often and I only learned to do that by being wrong. A lot. But then I admit that and move on.
Those who can't be wrong?
They are stuck. Like fucking ghosts in their own meat carcass. Haunting the shell of what could have been.
And no one can say I didn't try to wake them from their living hell. I tried.
Being right does not (by itself) make you rich. It does not (by itself) make you powerful. It definitely doesn't make you liked or listened to.
But it does let you look at yourself in the mirror. Pretty damn comfortably.
Not bad for a Lurch.
