a simple philosophy

Do the right thing.
At least TRY!
You won't always succeed. ;-)

Sometimes, my life seems to be a series of misunderstandings.
Why?
The archetypal optimist, I tend to assume that everyone thinks the same way I do …
and that they understand the nuances, the subtexts and multiple ironies that instinctively flow out of my mouth.

Reality check: most people don't instinctively engage on this level! And why should they?

Oh, well. Nobody's perfect.
I'll continue to try to
Do the right thing.
