Moonwalking

[madamesilverspurs]

One of our astronauts spoke of standing on the moon and looking back at the Earth. He observed that it was the same planet he’d always lived on, just seen from a different perspective.

Of note is what didn’t follow his observation: he did not accuse or disparage those who did not share his view. Rather, he endeavored to share what he had learned in order to increase our understanding. How ineffective that elucidation would have been had he included belittling name-calling in every conversation!
