We think we know ourselves. All of us. We tell ourselves and our friends how we would react if this or that happened. "I would have punched him," we say. "I would never have lost my temper," we say. "How could [he|she|they|it] have ever behaved that way?"
But we can't really know. And all too often, we aren't right. That's why I was so grateful to hear the story of Daniel Hernandez.
