Explaining

November 28th, 2016 · No Comments

Sometimes, all that is needed is to explain the other people. This may be the most difficult task in the world.

Some people just don’t understand some other people. Why not? Because those are other people who are somewhere else. The two groups of people need someone who lives with one group for a while and lives with the other group for a while.

Then:

Explain to these people in this place what is obvious to the other people in the other place.

Oh, that is all that is needed. So, why doesn’t it happen? Some reasons:

  • No one is paid to live among groups who “oppose” one another.
  • Anyone who lives with the other group has been poisoned by their thoughts.
  • I don’t have the time to do this.
  • No one will listen to me anyway.
  • Life is busy enough without wasting time on those other people and their silly notions.

We could go on. Understanding those people is one of those simple things that seem almost impossible to accomplish.
