young and dumb and

Morning Reading for July 16

It’s ok to be young. To sit down at the table for the first time. To live completely free of knowledge of the past.

It’s ok to be dumb. To be a little naive. All of humanity starts that way, and we haven’t figured out a better system yet. 

It’s ok to be young and dumb. There’s a lot of firsts. A lot of newness. A lot you don’t know.

It’s not ok to be young and dumb and mean. 

In fact, it’s not ok to be mean period. But meanness compounded by youngness and dumbness? Who could endure such a thing?

Thank you. Let’s have a great day.
