It seems every basic truth has it's opposite and equally valid truth. We have to deceipher what applies when.

Think about every platitude you know and there is one to completely opposite but true.

For a simple example-

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"

vs.

"Out of sight, out of mind."


I suspect you suffer as I do from a penchant for ultimate truth seeking...it is what it is until it is not...and so on.
