In the video we watched, although
it may have started a heated argument, I understand the place he was coming
from. I agree that in no matter what the situation is being presented, it is
important to put yourself in other people’s shoes so you can understand why
they react the way they do and how your actions and words affect them. This is
an important concept to use in your life. It prevents fighting and conflict in
life and it also increases empathy in a society.
Just the other day I had to use this in my
life. I had to put myself in my dad’s shoes and try and understand why he was
upset at me. I began to analyze my dad’s week and what he had done and my week
and what I had done. Once I did that I understood why he was upset at me and
how hurt I made him feel. My actions and attitude towards him were not what
they should’ve been and I had to become more aware of the problem. This taught
me to not only look at my actions and attitude towards my dad but towards everybody
in my life.
I see myself fitting into the big
picture of society by bettering myself as a person and doing the best to be a
good example for community. I will try to better myself by going to school and
doing something that I am passionate in and doing the best I can in it. I hope
to help people in my work and to change people’s lives for the better and to
leave an imprint in their lives. I hope to see myself being an example for
children and adults to be a good person by showing love and kindness everywhere
I go.
