“A conversation in which the two parties have different beliefs should never begin with the intention of converting the other party to your own beliefs. Every worthwhile conversation's goal should be to understand the other person's opinions and help them understand your own.”

― Emily Eskowich

There will be times we won’t be able to agree with someone else on a particular issue. And at times it is a deadlock. So stepping back is an option. Maybe not forever, but for the moment. We don’t deny, we just delay.
