Default REALLY off topic: Open-mindedness

I think it can be applied here in photography as well as within everyone's daily lives.

I got to thinking about the close mindedness of some people recently and wanted to find something that would not only put a definite understanding of what it is and what it means to be open minded, but something that may help me to be more open minded. Open mindedness means accepting people for who they are, whether or not their opinions and beliefs are the same as yours or not.

An open mind isn't the result of a fracture of the skull!
Thanks for the link FG.

I was going to read it, but thought better of it. I mean . . . it's not like I was going to learn anything from some stupid article anyway.
