The experience reminds me of the need to check things out for oneself. Often the story told by others is slanted, skewed or otherwise selling us a particular angle. Being from the Show Me State, my empiricism tells me a different story, grounded in my experience of reality.
Are you an empiricist? Does your experience match the story others tell? Ki to Happiness listens to others, takes heed, then proceeds to trust her own sense of reality.
