Something i think everyone should know

Warning: This WILL be critical and probably a hard hit for some people, but it's something that it's worth an also critical reading, maybe it'll serve to someone.

I honestly don't know what's gotten into me, but scrolling through cups for a while now and seeing the different posts and replies, and alongside them, the different stances and points of views of every person, i thought of something that maybe, or maybe not is worth sharing:

Are you what you believe?

I ask this thinking already in the most radical stances one could have, on religion, on life, on politics, everything, most people will defend a stance, it's natural, it's the base of society and humans as social beings, but i think it becomes a problem in certain situations.

When you are sharing your point of view, the ideal is you having in mind that you're not only speaking, you're hearing, and you're seeing, on a table with a handful of visions, you don't only give, you receive, the mistake is believing that:

• Only you have the final word

• You can't learn anything from others

• Any other POV asides from you is wrong

Those three points are really simplified versions of what i believe are killing entirely rich experiences and cultural exchanges, the issue here is not being able to mix yourself with what other thinks, so the next time you're sharing with others, make it a fair exchange, give, but be able to receive without freaking out, not only you exist in this world yk?

Maybe hear one thing or two before getting angry for your points being disproven.
