Fiḍál (Grace), 15 Sharaf (Honor) 176 B.E. - Tuesday, January 14, 2020
PROMPT January 14th Write about a time when you made a wrong assumption. Did you realize your mistake right away, or did someone tell you later? What did you learn from your mistake? I'm not sure, but I think I made one last night. I'll know one way or the other later today. I attempt not to make assumptions because 99 times out of 100 I'm wrong. The other 1% of the time is usually the results of misscommunication or a missunderstanding. I don't remember anyone ever verbally pointing out that I made an assumption. If someone pointed an assumption out to me, it was probably one of my siblings. I usually find out about the assumption after I make it. |
