Great comment. Thank you for sharing that. I definitely remember that airplane incident.

Was listening to a Ted Talk by a person who was on that plane ( the film "Sully"is about that incident) that ends up in the Hudson River and this person is given the gift of a miracle of not dying that day.....he says now I don't try to be right, I choose to be happy......made a lot of sense to me as what is right too shifts & can be different for different people ....

I love that quote..and BTW, It's actually more important to be "always" right!

There are times when gut instinct proves out and I'm not all that
happy to have been right. Just when I think I've outgrown the need to be right I come up against someone who also thinks he's right as rain, and realize I ain't as grownup as I'd like to be.

We have two types in my family; those who think they're right, and those who ARE right.lol. Usually we are tolerant of the other. But not always. Great post.

Well Taps what is nearly as bad is hearing the same tale over and over.
Especially if one has been proved to be wrong.
I do wonderv why it is so important to be right.

Poor Wiley is often wrong these days...his confusion fluctuates so I just let it go. How childish it would be of me to argue with someone who is so unwell at times.
BTW what your sister said is really very clever and very funny and I am having a good chuckle about it.

Only in truth. It's similiar to fake news and public information that affects protection. It doesn't always imply laws. In domestic and personal disputes, a win for both persons is needed. It's taught in Parent Effectiveness Training for parents. In Business Effectiveness Training, I'm not sure about the good for the company. And, I completed Contact Crisis Intervention Hotline training.
