@bookswithamanda212: I’m winded but hopefully my rambling makes sense to you all. I used to be so quick to get frustrated with people when they didn’t know something but as I’ve gotten older, I’ve become a lot more patient and gracious with people in that regards. The more you interact with people from different religious, racial, socioeconomic, political, etc… backgrounds, the more you become aware of how many people are operating life unaware of many truths and realities. Now, like I said, some people simply just need to think through the question and use basic logic, and others are blissfully incompetent with no care to change, so I’m much less graceful in my responses to them. But I use my discernment to help me be gentle and patient with those that I can tell genuinely didn’t know something and truly want to learn. #empathy #emotionalintelligence #privilege #accessibility

My wife and I used to say, "We know, what we know, when we know it." We used this whenever either one of us might feel condemnation for choices that we made, either in the present or in the past. It's easier to extend grace and kindness to others when one extends those things to themselves.

This is what, "Common sense isn't that common." means. So many people misunderstand what Voltaire meant.

This is self awareness. Giving people grace for not knowing things you know by virtue of your background and privilege, not looking down on them for not knowing i.e. not having access to things you probably didn’t earn access to.

Absolutely, because common sense to you might be brand new information to someone else so we extend grace....

Socrates said that wisdom was being aware of how much you don’t know

One of my favorite seasons on TikTok was the interior decorator finding out she couldn't see the difference between blue and grey. She was so funny

This is why I used to cut people off but now I don't. Boundaries aren't boundaries when I isolate myself and don't have anyone to challenge my thoughts or me theirs.

This is going to be so random but I love how dark your eyes are, they look black. I love when people have such dark colored eyes when I can’t see the pupil 🤣 (love your content per usual)

Not the point but the colorblind analogy just reminded me of a funny story. My two cousins, who are brothers, shared a house together a long time ago. They painted their living room and kitchen “white,” and when me n some other cousins went to go visit them, we had to break it to them that they, in fact, painted their walls baby pink.😆 They’re both aware they’re colorblind so idk why they didn’t ask others about the color they picked before painting, but we definitely had a god laugh.🤭
