Assumptions Are Guesses

They're gonna be upset about this.
That person is ______.
She/he always______.
They're happy/sad/confused.

These are just a few assumptions we make. We go about our day constantly making assumptions about regular day to day stuff.

That car is going to turn now.
That pedestrian is going to be out of my way...
The mail will arrive at...
I will be getting a call from...
They will be getting home at...

On and on the list can go. We have to go about life making a ton of assumptions.
We just get into trouble when we take our assumptions as immutable facts.

Assumptions are just guesses. They may be guesses with varying degrees of education, but they are guesses nonetheless.

So taking assumptions as simply assumptions and not facts help us manage reality and disappointments.
