Be uncomfortable, gain perspective

in philosophy •  7 years ago 

When I was a teenager in my worst judgmental phase, I asked my dad why he was always buying the shit gossip papers along with the decent ones. (yes, that was back in the days when we somehow believed we had access to genuine objective information in the press). He replied that it was very important to keep in touch with what most people read, because otherwise you cut yourself from the way most people think and you get too settled/comfortable in your own perceptions.
