Well that was an interesting experiment!!
After 4 short years of testing whether or not hindsight is indeed 20/20 VS. my hypothesis which declared that hindsight is made up in reality as much more imperfect, more filled with could be's and maybe not's instead of always is's. Here is what I've concluded thus far:
1). The experiment is never really over as long as we're still sucking in air. With that in mind, I have concluded that hindsight is not exactly 20/20, since our perception of events changes as we change and our experiences "morph" as we move further and further down our own timeline.
2). We are existing in our own individual Bubble's of Perception. They are created from our own personal knowledge and experiences on the planet. Shaped by the experiences and shared thoughts from those around us we are part of a larger bubble, a collective human experience of imperfect's (less than 20/20 hindsight to be sure) as the "understanding" of "true" perception is only as "accurate" as one's willingness to consent to another's vision of what is real and what is not.
3). In conclusion, I suggest one cannot nor should assume "facts" without questioning them. Most especially personal experiences and knowledge collected in the past and the past of others needs to be challenged. Test those ASSumptions!! Trial and Error if need be!! ...lest you look back in some future time and realize that what you've assumed to be true, to be bedrock for how YOU will live, was no more sturdy or real as a temporary illusive soapy bubble that goes pop! upon closer investigation. That would be a drag ay?

My personal thought on this is to always be \"upfront \" & ask lots of questions when in doubt!
