Agree to not agree.....

There is a subtle difference between agreeing to others’ views and to not disagreeing with them. They are not the same. The difference lies in that gap which is variously the repository of empathy or tolerance depending on the situation. It also allows for discovering at a later point that you could have been wrong all the while. An enjoyable parley of thoughts recognises this difference and takes the level of discussion to a higher plane where both parties ultimately realise that in an either or situation only one of them was right, indeed only one could have been right, and the other only had an aberration in the process of thinking. Eventually both experience happiness that A is A.
