“You can’t just go charging in saying “I’m wrong and you’re right”…because
everybody thinks that they’re right. A lot of the problems that we have to
solve are problems that require us to change other people. And if you want
to change other people, a much better way to do it is to first understand
who we are, understand our moral psychology, understand that we all think
that we’re right, and then step out…even if it’s just for a moment…and try
to see it as a struggle that’s playing out in which everybody does think
that they’re right and everybody has some reasons (even if you disagree with
them) for doing what they’re doing…and if you can do that, that’s the
essential move to cultivate moral humility, and get yourself out of this
self-righteousness which is the normal human condition”

The feedback I've received, not only through the blog but through Twitter and Facebook, have given me insights that have served to shape my understanding of this very complex planet. The lesson I've learned, is that it's not enough to have an opinion…we must strive to understand the opinion of others…we're all in this together.

If you get feedback on your blog, so much the better, as those comments will foster continued dialogue (both internal and external) and take you in directions you hadn't considered before. But even if no one reads what you write, it's all about the process – ultimately it's a personal thing.
