I thought I understood the conversation and it was the others who were not understanding. Set in my ways until eventually I realized I had missed something. The way it was didn’t make sense to me, so I thought they were the ones misunderstanding.

I recently spoke with a friend about her experience on a jury. She was so amazed, when they all got together and started talking about the case, to see different view points. Her filters caused her to view the case very clearly. It was an easy decision. Others filtered the testimony with different experiences and believes, coming to a different conclusion.

It’s okay to change our own minds after considering the wisdom of another perspective.
