This is an interesting perspective that I'd like to try. Thanks for sharing.
- nostrademons 10y agoIt't a really powerful perspective, but when you do it, make sure that you actually do respect the people around you. And that you can remain true to yourself in the process. Empathy changes a person (if you're doing it right); make sure that you're changing in a way that you want to change.
