If you go skydiving and the instructor says to you…
“Hey, I see a problem, your parachute probably isn’t going to open”
And you reply…
“Well, if it PROBABLY isn’t going to open, that means it still might open, so I’m gonna go for it…”
…then you’re an idiot. Even if the parachute does in fact open, you’re still an idiot for jumping.
It’s important to listen to wisdom. Not only listen to it, but apply it…and not always because you understand the wisdom and it’s application, but because you trust the giver of the wisdom.
