Hell, woman! It's hard enough to change yourself, let alone change someone else who may not want to change. But maybe you planted a seed.
If enough of us calmly placed little morsels for the less informed to chew on, slowly they might be better informed.
I had a conversation with a friend the other night, and it was clear there was a lot he did not know, and there are a lot of lessons in our own history he has forgotten.
It's an uphill battle, and the results may not be immediately present, but someday their mind just might open enough for more light to come through.
And you know, in time, we will find some of our ideas were misinformed, too. It's bound to happen in this day and age of mass media and misinformation.
