People are opposed to change. This is something that enlightened people like to point out. About my two year old. He is a smart boy, but really, he doesn't have much of an intellect, it is developing, but there is just so much capacity in any two year old, and so, the heart rules. If he were 42, or even 22, he would be called obsessively anal retentive, but, he is two, and that is the way that two year olds are as they come to trust their environment. Pulling a change on him could result in a tantrum, but, and here is the important part - after a day he gets used to the change. All of this is over matters trivial. An adult also faces change, over matters trivial and over matters of world shattering importance. (Whether two years olds face the prospect of change of world shattering matters is a deeper subject, not for now).

When confronted with the truth, it is a sign of deep character to a) know when your own arguments have lost strength, b) accept that truth, and, most important c) to act upon that truth.
