I can’t make Top Ten lists because I’m unwilling to limit myself. I find it very difficult to make a definitive statement.

For example, if my husband asks a simple question like, “Is so-and-so coming over?” I don’t just answer yes or no. I say, “She said she was.” That’s all I actually know. She could have been lying. Something could have come up. Maybe she lost our address.

My brain conjures up a whole host of scenarios that make a simple yes inaccurate.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 0px 0px 20px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_custom_headline level=”h4″ looks_like=”h4″ accent=”false” style=”color: hsla(14, 46%, 29%, 0.76);”]I also believe, sometimes a little too strongly,
