45: MINISODE #7: Re-discovering the virtue of playing nice

Recently I decided it would be a good idea to get down in the muck and fight fire with fire with some of my political rivals online. Admittedly I love the high that comes from over-indulging in my anger and frustration and just telling people I disagree with how I really feel. But I learned something, or rather re-contextualized a lesson I'm constantly learning over and over. The reason "They go high, we go low" is a good philosophy isn't because it helps us win some contested moral high ground. It's actually much simpler and less grandiose than that. It's a method for staying personally sane, healthy, and happy in a world of many insane, unhealthy, and unhappy realities.
