The Wisdom Of A Practical Man

“Assumption is the mother and father of all fuckups young man”, he said once as he stared beyond me dismissively.

What he actually said was; you’re a fool, but that’s ok you’re supposed to be.

It was like he wanted to show me my own stupidity, to be aware of it because without that realisation I couldn’t learn from him.

Or anyone else for that matter. Sunday Letters Coming Up... • Sunday Letters Pt1: The Wisdom Of The Practical Man • Sunday Letters Pt2: The Wisdom Of The Practical Man
