TL;DR: if you wanna be a better person practice to wait a second every time you feel angry/scared/"other strong emotion" before you act. Just one second! Then think "what do I wanna do now?" and you will be able to think of better options. Better than the option you would have chosen if you didn't wait that second.

BOOM! Congrats, you're a better person than a second ago.

Usually it's some form of worthiness wound that pushes us to self-defense. Something we learned in our pasts that still lingers and makes us think "I am unworthy/unlovable/broken". We don't *want* to believe it but what if they're right?

When we are hit by words that feed into that belief, that insecurity, then we must push that possibility away. We are not like that! We cannot be!

I take an active interest in world events & shiny new technology developments. I often post as a way to actively process my thoughts on a topic. I can, and often do, change my mind in the process of writing a post - I see that as a virtue, not a weakness. I'm very much open to changing my mind when presented with evidence and rational arguments.
