Know What You Think


Some men are just as firmly convinced of what they think as others are of what they know. 
~Aristotle

Do not accept that the filtered information and stories in the headlines are the only things worth knowing.  Remember that articles not supported by facts are simply someones opinion.  Marketing and the media are very good at rationalizing what we think for us.  The now of modern technology requires that we be responsible with our words and intentions, as they have the potential to influence innumerable others.  Think for yourself.  Ask questions.  In our large world there are new, exciting discoveries and experiences every day.  If something interests you, seek out more information.  If a cause speaks to you, find out the details.  It is more important than ever that our conclusions be our own.  Know what you think.
