RE: Want To Expand Your Perspective? Step Into Someone Else’s Shoes
I loved Fitzgerald's quote on intelligence! When I think about putting myself in other's shoes and still function, I consider the fact that one of the hardest things to do is knowing your right, and letting others win regardless.
I think of life like a game. Some are playing chess and some are playing checkers. Those who show a first rate intelligence are able to jump between both games effortlessly! Great post!
Yes, that's a sign of a truly intelligent person. Most people just can't swallow their pride and would rather go with their own seemingly wrong decisions that let the other people win.
It probably stems from the belief that we are all different and special in our own way, when really each of our existences are completely irrelevant in the grand scheme! Once we figure out that we aren't special, the real learning and living can begin!
