If you are on one side of an issue and everyone else seems to be on the other side, you shouldn’t feel the need to change their minds. Having everyone totally agree all of the time is just not necessary! If you disagree with them that doesn’t have to mean that you think less of them, and vice versa. So learn how to agree to disagree — avoid pushing your agenda or suspecting that they are pushing theirs. Everyone just thinks differently and that’s okay.
