250407 What I learned in my studies this morning 5
Today's Meditation(s):
Letters on Ethics by Seneca, LXXXI.25 (Graver)
This is something I began with my wife decades ago and have since expanded to almost everybody: the benefit of the doubt. If there two ways to interpret a situation, and one casts blame while the other does not, go with the generous interpretation first unless and until proven otherwise.

I know, however, that some people do not believe this way and have been forced to mask in some areas of life. No need to numbly give others a means to hang me, should that thought ever arise in them.
