Seems like a good time to repeat a golden oldie

Previously published. Just ran across it again and felt like it could use airing again.

Considering the ever-present political battles in which humans engage, the TED conversation by Ash Beckham struck me as particularly poignant. The point at which Ash describes events at her sister's wedding, and particularly the nervous conversation with a table full of nervous attendees, it makes me feel that I should be more tolerant of those who do not share my particular views but who honestly try to understand. Not everything has to be a battle. Everyone has a closet. It was every bit as difficult and stressful for me to step out of mine as Ash describes. How about you? Are you still in yours?
