Wouldn't it be nice if there was no resistance...to us, to what we think or want?
If there was no resistance, though, how would wider understanding be able to develop?
We value what we value and that is good (for the most part). But, that's not the point. The point is we tend to not value what other people value.
We can learn to discover that what other people value, is also valuable to us and, in so doing, we become better for it...often one result of resistance.
