Seeing beyond politics
Manage episode 450204250 series 1918829
Beyond politics lies our shared humanity. When we witness each other as complete human beings - not just political views - we can break free from fear and anger.
Jill's 'aha moment' came when she learned to separate people from their politics. She realized she could release the knot in her stomach, step back, and view differences with objective kindness. She was no longer held hostage by fear.
We all have the capacity to enjoy and respect each other when we look past political labels. The key is becoming a compassionate witness - seeing each other's full humanity while holding space for different perspectives.
The path forward isn't about eliminating disagreement. It's about refusing to let politics override our ability to connect as people who can be friendly, understanding, and kind to one another."
"Beyond politics lies our shared humanity. When we witness each other as complete human beings - not just political views - we can break free from fear and anger.
This transformation begins when we start asking different questions - not 'How can I prove them wrong?' but 'What experiences shaped their view?' Not 'Why are they so misguided?' but 'What hopes and fears do we share?' When we approach each other with curiosity instead of judgment, we create space for genuine connection beyond the political divide."
