Mistakes we often make

           

(A lesson in humility is highly recommended at all times to live in reality not in the fictions created by your ego. 
Nobody is perfect but some humans believe they are more perfect than other fellow human beings.)

MISTAKES WE OFTEN MAKE: 

kindness mistaken for weakness:  or even our weaknesses mistaken for kindness
friendship mistaken for trust.
Influence or price mistaken for value.
self-deception mistaken for freedom.
past record mistaken for future ability.
cunning mistaken for intelligence.
Passion, desire or libido  mistaken for love.
promissary notes (fiat paper) mistaken for money.
dominion mistaken for power.
Might mistaken for right.
wealth mistaken for health.
power mistaken for responsibility.
magical thinking instead of intellectual rigour. (Trivium)
quality mistaken for quantity.
kayfabe mistaken for history.
kinship mistaken for loyalty.
the law confused with justice.
popularity confused with influence.
obedience confused with piety.
ad hoc relativism confused with wisdom.
Credulity or information  confused with knowledge.
religion confused with spirituality.
entropic infotainment confused with learning.
anarchy confused with disorder.
Please add two more items to this general confusion.




The logical fallacies are considered trivial by those condemned by their hubris to be trivial people.
the more trivial the person the more arrogant his ignorance.
the crueller the torturer the duller his survival.
the louder the show-off the quieter his funeral.
the greater the inheritance the harder the discipline.
the lesser the honesty the more worthless the profit.
genius may be illiterate. honour may be innate.
hypocricy has no forgiveness.
it is the mother of all personal black holes.

Please add to this 

Proverbially we should not confuse:
 Apples & Pears or Oranges
Sheep & the goats
 Wheat & Chaff
Speed & Haste
Speed & bacon or Pork
Churra and Merina Sheep
