Quote: We Assume Things

When we are not in someone’s shoes, we assume things. We assume things that are often entirely inaccurate. You are not in someone’s shoes deep enough until you realize that you would make the exact same decisions that they are making. You are not far enough in someone’s shoes until the judgment you had towards them dissolves. It is the decision that someone’s perspective is wrong or bad that makes us incapable of stepping into their shoes. Our ego will not let us do it for fear of becoming wrong or bad ourselves.
