When I was in primary school,
I got into an argument
with a boy in my class. I have forgotten
what the argument was about,
but I have never forgotten the lesson learned that day.
I
was sure that I was right and he was wrong -- and he was just as sure that I
was wrong and he was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important
lesson. She brought us up to the front of the class and placed him on one side
of her desk and me on the other.
In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly
see that it was black.
She asked the boy what color the object was. "White,"
he answered.
I
couldn't believe he said the object was white, for it was obviously black!
Another argument started between me and my classmates anytime, this time about
the color of the object.
The
teacher told me to go to stand where the boy had been standing and told him to
come to stand where I had been. We changed
places, and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer, "White." It was an object with two differently-colored sides, and from his viewpoint
it was white. Only from my side was it black.
My teacher
taught me a very important lesson that day: You must
stand in the other persons'
shoes and look at the situation
through their eyes in order to truly understand their opinions.
