When your vision is a biblical vision, the people arguing with it are not arguing with you. They are arguing with God.

I am an eternally curious person, but I wouldn't go to such lengths to know what it is like to be someone else.

Our self-identification changes with our environment, but sometimes those dark thoughts permeate within us and there are those who are able to fight off those thoughts and others who don't want to fight them, or have just given in for whatever reason and whether they know the darkness they act upon is wrong, they love the darkness.

Step 1 in casting vision is to make sure your people love Jesus more than they love the vision you are casting.

Throughout my life I had wandered alone, trying to find pieces of me in any place I could and when it came down to it, I was nothing but a shell of missed opportunities.

Make sure your vision is God's vision.

There might be lots of boring thoughts coming from someone else, but the way they come across, they would be mind blowing because they would come in such a way so foreign to me. I think I would mostly be surprised, but alarmed also. There will be something within each of us, despite our differences, in thought processes to connect us.
