Only your experiences and epiphanies allow you to realize certain situations and other people’s experiences can help bridge the gap, BUT don’t allow for someone else to overwrite your right(s) with their own. It’s up to you to decide if you want to surrender your right to a belief or an understanding, to that person. If they care about you, they will allow you a path to teach them of your position, and if they don’t create that space, then who’s loss is it?
