Dreams pass into the reality of action.
From the actions stems the dream again;
and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.

The need to be right.

Sometimes it both amazes and frustrates me that we have this amazing desire to be right. It is so overwhelming sometimes that it blocks out reason and right thinking. It is most damaging when this desire keeps us from really listening and hearing what the other person is saying. It's so hurtful. It becomes systemic and the very problem inhibits the solution.

I'm guilty of this. I try so hard to listen. Sometimes it doesn't work.
