Small minds
The essence of small minds is not too complicated:
Expend enormous energy and attention on things that really aren't that serious or important in the grander scheme of things. Solve nothing, but insist on much that doesn't matter. Annoy the shit out of those with a vision of the big picture. Argue/pressure yourself into irrelevance:).
So sad that everyone is given the same capacity for intelligent reflection. But so few use that capacity for anything beyond smaller priorities.
Thank goodness for us that a few people keep their attention on the things that matter in life:).
Love,
Ben
