So where are you standing. Not your stance on something per se, but where you are mentally. In other words it is about your views of something. Our views toward something is often given to us by our families and surroundings.
As we take in more data about the world we see and don't see, our views change. We are responsible for our own individual thoughts and actions. We never really think about there being multuple sides to a story or views to a subject.
When we accept that there are multiple views, we will accept that we only see it from where we are standing. Then we can begin to grow.
Be well. Be encouraged. Be radical.

Beautiful thoughts my man. It is a matter of perspective and where you’re standing. And sometimes we make truth to be some subjective holy grail when it’s right in front of us. Truth has no subjectivity. It cannot be re-defined. Truth is. Just as He said. I am the way, the truth, and the life.
Amen! Too often we are forced to bend to the will of a mass. Whether it is a social issue or a church issue. It seems that truths are being created and then if enough people believe in it, it becomes validated
I think our personal life situation and experiences play a big role in determining our values, and it might be our different values that separate us from one another.
EXAMPLE:
People can be part of the same group, church or religion but for different reasons based on different values.
Thank you for another post @freedompoint 😊
Yep. I have made videos before that talk about us wearing different masks and developing different characters. I believe it is the same thing. Where we are standing is often pretty close to the people that helped develop that chatacter...
I haven't thought about our character being like a mask. It sounds like you think our character is not our true self @freedompoint.
I really appreciate the discussion✌️😊
Thats right. Check this out.
Thanks @freedompoint I will watch it as soon as I have time in the day. I'm happy that you linked to it 😊
I finally watched it @freedompoint and I will take it one step further.
I believe the thing you call "I" is also a mask, and that beneath your personhood, you are without form - formless.
The best way to describe yourself and myself is "not this and not that" not anything that can be named, thought, imagined or experienced.
Thanks for another video 😊
