Empathy

I genuinely try to understand people and empathize with them. Even if I initially think I disagree with a viewpoint, I pride myself in the ability to listen and put aside my preconceptions. I do not profess to understand everyone and everything, but I do try. It disturbs me when I can't seem to fathom someone and his or thought process at all. I would call these people ignorant, but that would make me ignorant.

The World . . .

. . . is your kaleidoscope
