Keep it simple got my vote. The other choices are good, but this one fits my week. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near my desk.

This is useful for some cases, but terrible advice if the stakes are high. For me it came down to the tiny repair.

The kindness in this post is lovely. I would write it down before changing anything else.
