In the 1800s that question meant to talk to someone in the spirit world. Today….in 2021….it means to talk to someone on the other side of politics. So…if you’re a liberal/progressive Democrat, when was the last time you talked to a conservative Republican? If you’re a conservative Republican, when was the last time you talked to a liberal/progressive Democrat?
In the 1800s they did it with seances. What would it take today? Are there powerful enough mediums to transmit across the divide?
In classic seances, the people initiating were actually asking. Trying to find out. To learn something. They were curious. They were investigating. They recognized there were things they didn’t understand.
In our world so many people seem to have figured everything out. At least…in their own minds. Because what they don’t understand, they seem to downplay, dismiss, and ignore.
Yet…it is so clear…to anyone who can be detached and observe…that no one has all the answers. No one understands everything.
When was the last time you asked to learn something from/about the “other side”? Do you have the humility to ask…and listen?
