I still cannot say with confidence that I value what is true above what is convenient. I just feel pretty detached from my past self/identity/opinions, which makes it easy to accept when my past self/identity/opinions were wrong. If all your beliefs are detached from your identity they just don’t feel important enough to make you bend over backwards to defend them from valid counters.
I could be wrong but I think that is a lot easier to do than becoming someone who stoically seeks truth at all costs. I like to let the truth come to me and accept it like everything else.
