John, ha! You’re a bolder man than me. I’m not real big on challenging folks in a head-to-head manner — that’s just a personal thing. And arguments? Forget it. Discussing in an effort to understand works best for me. But then, that’s the beauty of life, different strokes for different folks!

In my younger days, I saw the world as “either-or,” “this or that,” “black or white.” I’m pleased to say that I now realize that there are a lot of gray areas in life, but understanding can at least separate the shades of gray.

Thanks for joining the conversation. And great quote in your Medium bio.
