POINTS OF VIEW

     Everybody has an opinion and a point-of-view, and all of the different perspectives in the world clash against each other like waves on sharp rocks. Spray fumes out in all directions, and feelings often get hurt. We are quick to express our position, but not nearly as quick to try and understand the other side.
     Let's take the time and make the effort, even if we don't agree. Let's be willing to listen and communicate our own feelings, and to compromise where necessary and be willing to change our mind if there's a better way to see things.

I do not back myself into corners. I always allow for the possibility that I might want to change my point-of-view.
