To Understand All is to Pardon All
A riff off the Spinoza quote. The gist:
Most people are simply products of their environment. Thus you cannot really “blame” anyone for anything.
So what does this mean from a practical perspective? My thought:
Rather than trying to “change” people, we should strive to understand them and see where they are coming from.
And once you understand them and their perspective, you can determine:
- Should I befriend this person or not?
- Shall I do as they do, or shall I NOT do as they do?
- How do I agree or disagree with them?
