Peace can work,,,,,,,,,maybe not in my lifetime,,,but it can and will work.I believe this because without this,humanity is doomed.
Peace Homebudz..I belive peace will come about also.. I think it will be the third generation of hippies that will bring peace with it's dawing..I can't belive that there will be an end to humanity.. or the earth..
...lol....and thats your truth.... but do you have an open mind? They are not the same thing. I thought the topic was open mindedness, which you evidently aren't as much as you would like (not meant as a dig) but had you been more so you would not have bantered back about something as trivial as spelling or typos when you obviously got the message~* * giggles and goes back to playing*
Open minded. Being able to accept a new and/or differing idea, arguement, data for analysis, comtemplation. Not necessarily to agree with (plenty of people already doing that - just depends on who tells them - baa, baa, baa), but certainly to bring into your sphere to chew on, not to reject out of hand. Disagreeing with something doesn't equate to not having an open mind. Not even considering that something does. IMO.
You all have the right idea, IMO. Actually thinking something over with a sound mind, and not rejecting it right away, is being open minded. People may try to tell me that war is necessary, and I will think about what they say, but I don't ever think I will agree that war is the answer.
I agree with you Nathan. Just because you're open minded..doesn't mean you have to agree with every opinion or idea. For instance..if you were to see a person with some crazy outfit on..someone who isn't open minded would say..oh my God I can't believe she's wearing that. An open minded person would say what a great way to express yourself. Doesn't necessarily mean you would wear it, but you don't point fingers either. Being open minded means you can take in any and all ideas, opinions, or whatever the case may be...and think on it. Weigh out everything. Don't confine yourself to your own beliefs, but take in all you see and hear. Living is an everyday ongoing learning experience. If you only see what YOU believe to be true, then how can you grow as a person??? Namaste
having an open mind means u accept all, ur tolerant of all, u love all, and u give consideration to things you dont agree with. its very important to have your own opinions, but u must allow yourslef to listen to others and maybe even use their advice to build on your own thoughts. to me, having an open mind means u dont question what u can't understand. u don't look down on someone because they are different its just all about total acceptance man, and theres nothing wrong with that...and it helps u find peace of mind peace and love
I think having an open mind probably comes down to being willing to listen to another person's point of view, but it certainly does not mean that you have to agree with what they are saying. I am NOT open minded about a number of things I hold on principle or on conscience, about human rights and dignity, about Bush (lololol). As for Hitler, I feel sorry for him, because maybe he came in as a courageous soul, like all the rest of us, with ideas and ideals and hopes to bring about something good in his experience. Obviously, he went way off track...I mean WAAAAY....but his soul/spirit somewhere now has to make up for those errors, or try to make ammends somehow. But who knows? Maybe to do that he will come back as a great humanitarian next time? We just don't know enough from here to be able to see how a life as bad as that may redeem itself given time and the endless possibilities of this universe....ommmmm
I love you too brother..and you are a cutie, by the way. I absolutely adore the way you think. I only hope to find someone as soulful as you one day.
