A mistaken idea of getting to know people

[Dani]

I am going to keep it short:

People will see a young man struggling with problems in his life. So they take out a template out of their mind of "A young man that isn't doing X as I know how to do X." They say to themselves: "I did this as a youth and I corrected this by doing X as an adult. If it works for me, it works for them because I am an adult and I have the experience to be an authority on this matter."

They go to the young man and offer wisdom: "Hey, I see you're doing X this way. I do X this way. You should go ahead and listen to me."

The young man says: "If I do X that way I won't be happy. I desire something different."

"Son, listen, I have experience. Just do X that way, alright."

"No."

"You're very immature and lack responsibility. You need to open your mind."

And thus the discussions end indefinitely. Everybody thinks that everybody should think like them and thus the possibility of reconciling differences is considered moot. And our youth are indoctrinated into this same manner of thinking generation after generation.

Adonai One, this is a very interesting way to look at conversations.
