“The world is
changed by your example not by your opinion.” Paulo Coelho
I
have never successfully argued my point in such a way that the other person
went away thinking I was obviously right and they must change their actions,
thoughts, votes, bubblegum choice right away. No one has ever successfully done
the reverse with me either.
There
have been people whose behavior or demeanor I admired. In so doing, I sought to
know how or why they did what they did. Sometimes I asked directly. Often I
just paid attention. I noticed their example and I tried to follow it. Just for
the record, no of them stand on a soap box demanding that I follow their way.
They simply show me one possible avenue I can take if I like.
