Let's take a little walk...

To walk a mile in the other's shoes.

What does that mean?

Does it mean we have to live through another's hardships? Or could we look at both sides and see their happiness as well. To understand the other, we have to see everything in their eyes. To understand how someone can be who they are, we need to see why they are.

To walk a mile in another's shoes. Has always been said so others will realize how hard the other person's life may be. But could we apply this in any other way?

I see it as a chance to understand why someone could love their life. Even if I'm their opposite. We all have different priorities, and it's those priorities that give us the adrenaline to move on in life.

People often say, I don't understand you. But did you try to understand. Everyone is different. But I believe that if you try to understand another person, then could you see that you don't have to think like them, but understand that what they like makes them happy. There's so much missing from peoples lives.

To be understood, you have to understand.

If it makes people happy to live as a conformist. Then do so.
If people dance to a different beat. Allow them. It's their happiness, not yours. If we were all too different, our world would be in a much more dangerous, lonely state.
Difference is good. But unity is better.
Im not suggesting we all live like clones. But that one step of understanding will bring us to another level.

Happiness.

Has anyone seen the movie, "The Pursuit of Happiness"? Such a moving movie with an amazing meaning. The most amazing part is the fact that it is based on a true story. Well what would we base our happiness on? Is it the amount of money we have? The amount of friends we have? What makes up true happiness. If anything I think true happiness is me. It is you. Each of us are all so different. How could we shrink the meaning of happiness to one type. There's not just one type of human is there? We are tall, small, wide, thin, smart, loving, kind, mean. We all like different things so how could we possible confine the meaning of happiness to one type?
