"Gretchen, I totally agree with what you are saying. We should never try to shift someone's paradigm to fit our own. Within your friendship groups and with your family members, there are going to be different opinions. And you know what, that's great. The great thing about the world we live in is that we get to learn from others about their perspective. So I think retrospectively that if we try to convert everyone to our paradigm, we actually miss valuableĀ opportunitiesĀ to learn more about the world." - Josh Chandler
