It's rainy today, but a public holiday, so I'm staying at home.

Word and language are imperfect tools. What we are driving at by means of language cannot be categorically expressed well, so we are essentially all lying. Before we stop trusting someone, we need to stop overly trusting the role of language first. It's much better and constructive to give up our putting too much trust in language than to lose our mutual friendship. We sometimes might have told someone a lie, but that is just a part out of many true stories we have told each other. Forgive ourselves.
