I work on dialectical consciousness with my therapist. I think it’s hard for me to hold on to that online, though, because there’s SO MUCH that is coming at me. So many comments, so many responses. Which is a lovely blessing, of course, but it gets overwhelming so quickly and I think my mind immediately defaults to needing to simplify and sort, which kicks that dialectical thinking right out the door.

I love what you said about disagreement being a token of respect. I’ll remember that. ❤
