The Place Where We Are Right

We grow when we are vulnerable and doubt ourselves. Doubting yourself is what brave people do, never questioning yourself is what weak people do.  It’s okay to change your mind,  it’s okay to say you were wrong. This humble, learning mindset is the way to growth.

The Place Where We Are Right

by Yehuda Amichai

From the place where we are right
Flowers will never grow
In the spring.

The place where we are right
Is hard and trampled
Like a yard.

But doubts and loves
Dig up the world
Like a mole, a plow.
And a whisper will be heard in the place
Where the ruined
House once stood.
