One of the most divisive things we can do is make assumptions about the feelings and motives of someone else (or worse, an entire group) – particularly someone we don’t see eye to eye with. Let’s strive to have the humility to push delete on our assumptions, and actually listen to those with a different perspective. We may learn something we didn’t know. We may find more common ground than expected. Sometimes we may not, but at least we’ll understand one another as people, rather than just “opponents”.
