Why do we assume? Do we create or destroy in doing so?

There are times we all make assumptions in our lives. We also tend to make decisions based on these assumptions. Most assumptions are based on past life experiences that have nothing to do with the current situation we are faced with. Yet, we judge the current situation based on that and create chaos and negative outcomes because of that. We are usually wrong when we judge a situation because of past assumptions. Have you ever made an assumption to only later find out you were completely wrong??? Have you ever heard what they say about that word? hmmm ASS.u.ME.....

We must have all the correct facts at hand before we judge a situation properly. Do not let past life experiences get in the way of our present or our future. Trust is built and maintained in proper communication and complete openness. Focus on showing and seeing the whole picture for what it really is. It is destroyed by choosing to look at things by our fears, worries, and failing to communicate. It is only a matter of time before all involved will actually see the facts and the reality of the situation. Then what happens??!! Hurt, pain, distrust, crushed relationships, and much much more. Do not hide in the shadows and keep secrets for fear of what someone might think or hurting others involved. If that fear exists, we shouldn't be doing it in the first place. Instead, clear the air and earn respect in the process.
