…..she was one hundred percent wrong and I was one hundred percent right, but a person could never get her to understand this rudimentary fact. See, she was stubborn beyond belief, stubborn as all hell, and getting her to recognize and admit one of her many shortcomings would be about as easy as beating a cheetah in a footrace with a heavy-duty Whirlpool refrigerator strapped to your back. That ain’t gonna happen today, tomorrow, next week, or in the furthest reaches of infinity either. Never, in other words. She equated admitting a mistake with prohibitive character deformation, hence is there really any reason to believe she would just voluntarily step forward and empty her humility canteen for all to see and appreciate? The answer is a resounding “No!!!!!”, at least not in my lifetime…..
