Humble yourself and admit to a degree of uncertainty

Too much of something is harmful, a long-living adage that many wise people reach. We hear many people repeating it, but not all practice its implications. It might be that what we consider too much is a matter of controversy since it is a relativistic matter. Everyone gauges things from a certain internal perspective making us differ in what is too much and what is in the range of normalcy. At times people believe that they are in normalcy while other people feel that they are exceeding limits, so who is to put limits? We all have certain things we are certain about and that is what freedom is; it is to allow people to have certitudes, without clinging on certitudes of annihilating others neither should they impose them upon others. We all live different lives, we all reach conclusions due to inner alterations, partially instigated by external matters. Agreeing that your words might appear wrong for others, yet find confidence in yourself that they are right for you is key for internal peace in some sense. Being around people who also do agree that you might reach different conclusions and you have the right to internalize them deeply without harming anyone is a right you must enjoy and this shall create an overall healthy society.
