Doubts

I doubted myself and thought maybe the others were right. I thought everyone should doubt themselves, that self-doubt was healthy. But then I came to think, What if the others were right in not doubting themselves? This was taking my self-doubt to its conclusion. Thus I learned from doubting myself and trusting others to trust myself and doubt my doubts. But I got into a heated argument with a friend in which I trusted myself and she trusted herself too, and it seemed as if each of us was blind to the possibility of being wrong though one of us had to be, and I remembered that this was why I had previously concluded that self-doubt was healthy since to discover one’s mistakes required questioning oneself, and so I returned to doubting myself and trusting in my doubts.
