I think that being able to recognize your weaknesses and where there might be room for improvement in yourself is such an important skill to practice as a human being. The world is always changing and we should always be changing with it. There should be no shame in changing an opinion or value you once had. If we are able to set aside our own thought to connect with someone I think we would have a greater chance of creating stronger relationships. There is a connection between intellectual humility, tolerance, and bridging a gap between differences. I think that this is the biggest takeaway from the article. The world needs more tolerance and compassion. If people were more willing to express empathy toward other groups of people and often act with compassion the world could be a better place. Not everyone is going to value the same things you do, but we all have experiences that have shaped who are whether they are good or bad. It is important to not brush this under the rug. There is something we can learn from those who are not like us. And even if we do not align with them or agree with them it does not mean they are less valuable than anyone else.
