Hey Mike,

Thanks for your response. I read your article. Thanks for sharing!

I think you are spot on. Being open-minded is a skillset that most people desire, yet like you said, for most people, it takes a lot of practice making yourself more vulnerable (at least that's how you would feel personally), which is really hard to do. I've been trying to be more open-minded over the past few years, and it's still a struggle for me, but I do believe I am moving in the right direction.
