You may have what you think is a very fixed opinion on an issue you're
dealing with that involves another person, Moonchild. You may think that
you would never change your mind or even bend a bit, but there could be
some room for compromise and deeper understanding if you are open to it.
A candid conversation without pretense or posturing or any sense of threat
will help you get down to the bottom of what's happening. If you really want
to learn where another person is coming from you will have to be sincere
and unguarded. You may find that your position will shift somewhat and that
would be great for both of you.
