How rigid are you in your convictions?

I take pride in listening to all sides of the issues. I never assume I am correct, because so often in my life I have been wrong. However, I do have my little favorites among my theories about things, and they are like beloved pets...very hard to let go of them. I also sometimes develop a deep irritation, sometimes bordering on hatred, for really irritating opinion pundits and politicians who are abrasive and offensive. I sit here listening to the news and swear at them as though they can hear me! LOL!! But that is more being grumpy than being rigid.

The only sort of philosophy that I live by is "anything and anyone could be wrong" and "all knowledge has a half-life".
Basically, keep an open mind, the truth isn't that rigid.

I have to admit I don't stick to that as well as I used to and it causes me anxiety. I was happier when I was more relaxed and flow-y about things.

It's a problem for me, because I struggle to believe anything. Creates this existential dread. That said... I'm pretty skeptical, and open to learning. Hard to say I'm ever "positive" about anything--I don't think anyone has that luxury. Not unless they're willing to blind themselves to the vast variances, and unexplainable aspects of, life.

I'm as sheeple as they come.
