The two virtues, certainty and doubt are very controversial. The doubt somebody has can cloud their judgment but it can also guide them in making a better decision. On the other hand, certainty can blind someone from seeing their true colors of something. In our modern society, doubt is looked down upon; or viewed as a negative idea. Doubt doesnt always contradict certainty, but instead somewhere in between. We have been and always will be afraid of certainty. Generations upon generations have taught is to doubt our decisions and actions and to not trust our minds or heart. People fight for and strive for acceptance and certainty only for doubt to come in and create a feeling of rejection and loneliness. Constant change is certain. We dont need justification if and when someone knows that they are certain.
