Stymied: I have a lot to learn.
I talk a good game sometimes.
Sometimes, I don’t know what I’m talking about.

Who or what can we believe?
Know yourself.
A Friend on FaceBook has asked this question several times in recent weeks. I am writing this specifically for that person. Mainly, I will merely reiterate things I’ve said before on this blog; whereas that person doesn’t normally read this blog.
