I find changes of heart one of the most endearing things a person can do. Of course, when one changes one's heart, what one is really doing is changing their mind.
It means someone has been open-minded. Someone has examined a held belief and found it untrue.
It is rare and difficult. Humans develop a pretty hard-held set of beliefs, and confirmation bias - seeing what you expect to see based on your beliers, and not seeing what is inconsistent with them - ensures that we think we're right, that our thoughts reflect truths.
Don't believe what you think.
When you process information that changes your mind, it's a beautiful thing.
It isn't easy to do, and it doesn't happen often.
Mind-changing things come along often, but people changing their minds happens a lot less than it potentially could.
Or should.
Because changing one's mind is as wonderful as having an open mind is.
