Openness to Learning and Change
Talking to people all over the country, I am learning. Listening to the speakers at the Republican National Convention, I am learning. There are so many different perspectives around the United States. Who’s to say mine is correct? Or the most enlightened? It’s certainly not. If we all commit to an open mind, we will learn something. We will learn that fundamentally, we all want the same things: health, wealth, and happiness. That’s the easy part. The hard part is figuring out how to accomplish all that, and then developing the patience and understanding that it might not occur in our lifetimes. It all comes down to this: do you live your life solely for you, or will you consider those who come after?
