It's those different personal experiences you mention that make our paths different. Our paths may run parallel to each other, but they are ultimately different. And I happen to think this is a good thing. It's our different personal experiences that shape what we bring to the discussion. We can agree 100% on everything but still be looking at it through different eyes. And it's by sharing these personal experiences that we can affect compassion and understanding for each other. Geez that sounded pretentious.....I hope you get what I am saying.
