'In my travels across the country — at gas stations, diners, churches, barbershops, & roadside barbeques — most Americans resist relentless negativity and aspire for interactions that enrich their lives; we strive for hope & shrink from hate.' -ZitoSalena
BEDFORD, Pennsylvania — From across the curved chestnut bar in the sprawling lobby of the Bedford Springs Hotel in this Central Pennsylvania town, it was hard not to be drawn into the conversation between Christopher Ege, JoAnn Harrison, and her husband Dan. Given their animation and laughter, one might have assumed all three had known each other for years and clearly shared a lot in common.
Two things stood out after meeting Ege and the Harrisons and eventually joining them. First, they weren’t lifelong friends as I assumed; they had only met 15 minutes before I sat at the bar — and because they had gotten on so well, it took some convincing from them that they had truly just met. Ege, the most gregarious of the three, smiled broadly and put his arm around both, “Ha, I don’t agree with any of their politics, but I like them; this has been a great afternoon,” he said. He added that his wife had been enjoying a spa treatment while he’d been enjoying the sights in the historic lobby.
It’s not just traditional news coverage that is the problem — nearly everything we do seems to tell us only part of a story, or only one point of view, distorting how we see the world or how we see each other.
