Right and wrong
If you do it differently than me, does that mean one of us is wrong? What if we’re both wrong? Or maybe there’s more than one way and we’re both right.
When I was younger, apparently I knew it all and did not realize that was a problem. I still remember one of our oldest friends saying, “Oh, you’re a know-it-all.” She probably doesn’t even remember saying it, but it stuck with me.

Being more open-minded is more pleasant for me and the people around me. It also makes it more likely that I will learn and grow.

Hopefully, my questions cause you to reflect on your own thinking, relationships or choices. Maybe I even inspire you to make positive changes.
