Weird or just different?

The lack of tolerance that some people have in day to day life really startles me; what people think is not really my business, but far too often people dont stop for a moment to think what the situation would be when the shoe is on the other foot.

People make trivial decision as part of their day to day tasks, and usually there is some level of logic involved in how they came to that decision. However, as part of ‘self-improvement’ their judgment is questioned and occasionally, a better method of action is suggested. Simple statistics tell us that people will probably acknowledge the suggestion at first but expletives muttered under their breath are not uncommon. Why? Well, because “what does the other person know what I was talking about!”.

Suggestions are made because a scenario is viewed differently from another set of eyes. In the same way certain things are done differently in different cultures, communities and societies. It is important to observe these differences and either integrate or accept into these. “Illogical” objections will just make you look silly!

The ultimate example of this is the 3minute video below, where the difference between logic in one part of the world seems like nonsense another!
