you ever wonder how such a simple concept can seem so complex to other people? things like respecting opinions and differencesā¦ itās almost like we arenāt all the same person with the same experiences and perspectives. if someone says something that sounds awful, my brain immediately thinks āand why do they think that? what road led them to become a person who thinks that?ā not āthey donāt deserve to have opinions or live.ā people are wicked, man.
