A Constitutional Convention is a declaration that the old ways aren’t working. It’s a group of people saying, “Let’s hit the reset button on our entire social agreement.” It’s terrifying, exhausting, and occasionally revolutionary.
So, next time you have to negotiate the pizza toppings with a grumpy friend, don’t get frustrated. Just smile. You are experiencing a tiny, glorious, and deeply historic moment. You are in your own Constitutional Convention. Just try to avoid the lace-up shoes and powdered wigs. They’re impossible to snack in.
