A lot of times people assume I can not look at what they are going through. But sometimes I wonder why this is. I call this "perspective." Basically, perspective is what point of view you look at a situation or person from. For example, my mom looks at Goths and says "wish they had less peircings." I look at him and think "I wonder why he dresses that way. He probably thinks peircings are the coolest thing in the world....or wants attension." Which is the two main reasons I've found people like what they like. When a car passes you going 100 miles per hour and almost crashes do you honk, curse at him and say "what an idiot!" or do you think "Oh my God! Close one...I....I wonder if his mother is dieing in the hospital now. What if he just wants to say 'goodbye, Mom. I love you.' one more time." I believe you should always look at another perspective, even when dealing with an enemy of yours. Maybe they are just a little....misunderstood.
