Good Conversation: Making the World A Better Place

It's been a while since I've had a really good conversation. Tonight, Jenna and I got dinner together, and we had one. I think we both left feeling like, just in that one conversation, we had taken another step in the right direction for world change. Yes, we both have different beliefs and views, but even with our differences, we were on the same page as human beings. We both want to see change in the world, change for the better, change that leads to the love and respect of ALL people, no matter who they are or what they believe. And I'm slowly starting to see the lines of communication being built between Christianity and the outside world. I believe conversations like this are exactly what we need to move forward in making the world a better place. Openness and honesty may be hard to grasp individually, as well as hard to find amongst others, but it is completely necessary if we want to work together to build bridges. And being open and honest does not mean you need to sacrafice what you believe, and it certainly does not mean we should push that belief on someone else. It simply means we are finding a common ground on which to communicate, so that we can better understand where the other person is coming from.

I wish all conversations could be as productive and eye-opening as my conversation with Jenna was. Seeing the title of this blog after a coversation like that also makes me realize that there is more meaning to it than the spiritual one I originally intended when I started this blog.

Better is one day.
