I wish it worked that way.
I guess people are hard for anything or anyone to understand.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
As a person myself, I very much agree.
*Laughs*
Is it not easier for you, being a person?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
We are, I would say that's accurate.
*Sheepishly smiles*
Sorry if I can't properly express my thoughts here. It's such a task to understand people sometimes.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
To some.
I see... People are very complex.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
It’s a saying. It just means you’re in a bad situation.
It wouldn't feel very good. Wouldn't that be an inspiration to keep going though?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
If it is a painful change to their very being.
How does that cause dire straits?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
It shouldn’t. But in dire enough straits, it can.
Dire straits?
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
But you do see how it can be extremely detrimental to the concept of identity, yes? Even if changes like that can be for the better, they can often hurt.
Yes, I can see how it would sting. I don't think it should destroy you though.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
If your efforts up to the point where your mind was changed were suddenly rendered either meaningless or even against your new view, would you not be disgusted with yourself? Especially if it’s in regards to something drastic?
*Nods*
But it doesn't mean it was worthless. You would have grown as a result, even if you don't like who you were.
<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
It can shatter a person’s entire self-perspective. Sometimes irrecoverably. Having an identity is important.
If your data set changes, wouldn't everything you build on top of it change too? It doesn't seem like something that would shatter someone.
