RE: Change - When I read that blurb, my first thought was that it was about politics, and it made me very angry.
Taking a breath and stepping away, I do think that we have to change. If you don't have experiences that change the way you think, if you keep the same outlook and opinions that you had when you were in kindergarten, well, we're screwed. Your priorities change, so your opinions change. You fall in love, you have kids, you make friends, you see pain, you see joy, and maybe you experience them too. They change you, and if they don't ... I don't want to trust you.
If talking to someone who is passionate about something that you are opposingly passionate about doesn't at least let you understand differences then how do you get up and go to work everyday? How is life not the most miserable experience in the world.
My priorities are not what they were in 1975. Or 1986, or even last week in some instances. Some days losing weight and being healthier is the most important thing on my mind. Some days it's cheese.
