I don't agree with everthing you just said, but I like when you said.....

It's been four months since I posted the initial post of this blog!  Why haven't I spilled my guts about my transforming experiences?  Well I think it's because of the ultimate thing that I need some true transformation from; worry of what others think of my perspective.  I have a problem with other people having opinions about the things that I feel that are important to me.  I really don't like it when it differs with so many people.  It makes me think that I am the only one that thinks the way I do.  But I am constantly reminded that changing perspectives and the way you think and do things doesn't come with a little grief and a little pain.  Other opinions are the tensions that make my thinking muscles stronger, so instead of looking out there for someone to agree with me, and keeping things comfortable to me, I need to open the door to other opinions, while at the same time adjusting my thoughts to other perspectives.  Allowing for growth!  I tend to allow other peoples opinions to be completely wrong and ignore it, or completely right and I ignore my perspective, so I think adjusting mine or theirs is a safer, healthier way to go.  So I will do my best to go into each topic or discussion I have here with an open mind, listening ear.  I hope you can do the same!
