「司法應該是要被人相信的,但顯然它不是。」當你看見摯愛的家人在新聞上被誣指為殺人兇手時,你也願意義無反顧地相信他嗎?
徐自強1995年捲入一起綁架撕票案,在死牢裡待了16年,被判過7次死刑,曾想著死亡是一種解脫,只盼望在死前再見上家人一面,而每天晚上,都曾是他的最後一個夜晚,拖著腳鐐,那段人間煉獄的日子佔據了他一半的人生。
經歷一次又一次令人失望的判決,他對這世界只有絕望與憤怒,但家人的信任與廢死聯盟執行長林欣怡的一句「我相信你」,讓他慢慢放下憤怒,決定與司法對抗。如今的徐自強,只期盼透過自身的經歷,換起社會對司法、人權議題的重視。「我沒有什麼夢想,我只希望不要再有下一個徐自強。」

台灣近年來面臨嚴重的價值衝突,同婚、核電、死刑,都造成了兩極化的價值對立,不同觀點固然可以激發不同的競爭進步,但是無效溝通只會造成雙向消耗。
洪子偉提出了「直覺衝突」概念,當人接收到的資訊讓直覺無法在第一時間做出判斷時,大腦會被迫尋找其他線索重新思考,逼迫人無法再以刻板印象溝通,轉向自我主觀的改變,創造全新的溝通路徑,雙方因此能用開放的態度進行有效對話。
或許你也可以想想,當你在什麼情況下,願意理解容忍敵對陣營的觀點呢?

「學會面對你的痛苦與不安全感,並相信:對方不能滿足你,不是因為他不愛你,而是因為他有困難。他為你做的事,是他自己願意,而不是因為應該。那他為什麼願意?因為他愛你嘛。」-周慕姿(心理諮商師)
情緒勒索是一種「互動」的模式,不是一方索要一方而已,也要有人順從。勒索者知道自己在勉強對方,但並不覺得那是一種痛苦,因為過去他們也是這樣子犧牲忍耐來的。他們可能很沒安全感,以為對方沒有乖乖照做,就是不愛自己。跳脫情緒勒索的方式,就是要面對自己的痛苦與不安全感,並且學著去相信對方,相信愛。
「別人不能滿足你,不是因為不愛你,而是因為他有困難。他願意為你做的事,是因為他想,不是因為他應該,那他為什麼想?因為他愛你。我願意為你是因為我愛你,不是因為我怕你。」
