Thought 274: Wiseman's Response


A psychological test for evaluating core beliefs and levels of self-esteem demands that one complete the following sentences:

People are...
I am...
The world is...

It seems to have escaped the notice of the test-makers that a wise(wo)man would simply leave the dots blank and write:

People are...
I am...
The world is...

and thereby keep himself from making a value judgement about these three things.
