Even when there's no truth in people's conclusions, there's always truth in their stories.

And the last thing I'll say because I'm so glad that you brought up this difference between truth and trust is the conversation about what is true is not effective.

across our society when there is no trust.

And the only conversation that builds trust is the one about where people find meaning and where their concerns and fears and hopes are.

Yeah, so I think of I never thought of it that way moments, Intuit moments for short, as the rewards of a curious conversation.

When you think or say, huh, I never thought of it that way, it's proof that some perspective has crossed that chasm between someone else's mind and your own.

You don't know what impact it will have, but you have noticed it.

And that's saying something, right?

Like our brains have a bajillion thoughts every day, but to be able to have the thought, oh,

That's new.

That's interesting.

That's made a mark on my brain.

Maybe it's planted a seed.

Maybe it will change something that I think of like in 15 years and I'll be a completely different person.

Unlikely, but possible.

Maybe it'll be dug out of the ground tomorrow.

Who knows?

But one way or the other, it's the result of having interacted with different people.

and something now looks richer.

Something has had an added dimension to it.
