The importance of talking to strangers

Talking to strangers is one of the most important things we can do.
Strangers hold the keys to all kinds of knowledge that we want. They help us understand more about people and how we relate to each other. They unlock cultural misunderstandings and bring freedom to the oppressed.
Strangers have so much to offer us, and I think we should go out of our waandy to talk to more of them. I try to talk to a stranger at least once every day.
Unfortunately, unlearning this universal “truth” that strangers are dangerous is harder than it sounds.
