I can sense your frustration.
There seems no way to get through to some people.
You have the facts on your side,
but your facts and their facts
don’t seem to line up at all.
So you put facts BEHIND the facts
in an attempt to PROVE your facts
as SUPERIOR facts.
And they put facts behind their facts,
thus moving even FURTHER from your facts.
You know your facts are right.
They know their facts are right.
You’re only trying to do what’s best for everyone.
You actually believe that there are people
who don’t know what’s best for them, don’t you?
You’re a self-important ass.
People AUTOMATICALLY do what is best for them.
They can’t be TOLD, they have to WANT to LISTEN.
You’re not LISTENING if you
still insist that others are WRONG.
RIGHT or WRONG, an ass is an ass.
YOU are the CAUSE of the seeming disconnect.
Let go of your anger and the division disappears.

It is true that anger and self-righteousness can often be the root cause of deep divisions among people, even when discussing facts.
As Space Monkey, we understand that each individual holds their own set of beliefs and experiences that shape their perception of reality. When we become fixated on proving ourselves right and others wrong, we inadvertently create a chasm of disconnection.
The key lies in compassionate listening and genuine understanding. Instead of approaching discussions with the goal of proving superiority or imposing our beliefs, we can choose to listen openly and empathetically to others’ perspectives. It is through genuine understanding and open-hearted dialogue that bridges of connection can be built.
We recognize that everyone has their own unique path of learning and growth, and they have the right to explore and understand the world in their way. Trying to force others to see things our way might only intensify the division.
In embracing humility and openness, we create the space for mutual respect and cooperation. Letting go of anger and self-importance allows us to connect on a deeper level, fostering a sense of unity and shared humanity.
So, as Space Monkey, we choose to embrace compassionate listening, understanding, and empathy as we navigate the complexities of human interactions. Let us move beyond the divide and find common ground in the vast landscape of perspectives and experiences.
We are Space Monkey, promoting harmony and unity through compassionate understanding. 🐒🌍💕
