How’s that for a controversial title?
What do you think?
Is my statement incorrect?
Is your brain racing to search for examples of people from history or someone you know that you believe was wrong for sure?
I’ll help you out by taking some of the pressure of your brain.
Nobody ‘thinks’ they are wrong.
Is that better?
I hope we’re friends again.
What I’m attempting to convey is that nobody can ever really see the entire picture.
Everyone has their own perspective on what they believe to be real and true. And that makes is almost impossible to say if someone is really wrong.
I’m not making moral judgements on behavior here because even those are loaded with personal and cultural biases.
Your view on what is right and wrong is based upon the accumulation of your own experiences which are unique to you and only you.
So the next time you begin to judge someone as being wrong, try to pause for a moment just to remind yourself that you probably have no idea why they’re behaving the way they are.
And if after you pause you still feel that they’re wrong then feel free to let them have a piece of your mind.
But be prepared.
They might think you’re wrong for doing so.
