Classes started last week, and that is when you're first starting to get to know your classes and your professors. In one of my classes, my professor introduced the class to a video that has inspired me and will stick with me for the rest of my life.
This video is about a snail and a caterpillar disagreeing on how to get to a party. The basic theme of the video is that sometimes you're going to have disagreements with people, but it is important to remember that it's okay because everyone has a different "worldview." Worldview is a concept that was first introduced to me on my first day in my child development class. Your worldview is your perspective on what the world is like your own personal glasses that help you understand the world clearly. This can be affected by someone's parents, culture, or childhood experiences. Your worldview is the basis for your different opinions and beliefs. This particular video stuck out to me because everyone is always arguing or getting upset about small, petty things, especially nowadays. Although the video is kind of childish in the way that they portray their message, it is still extremely relevant to all the issues in our world right now. We as human beings can get careless sometimes and act impulsively, which can ruin relationships and friendships. This is something that I have struggled with, and this video really opened my eyes. I've always gotten into arguments that led nowhere just because I got upset about something that someone said or something that they did. Seeing this video makes me realize that all those arguments were really meaningless. Not everyone has the same experiences. Not everyone has is going to have the same opinion as you. You can't just "step into someone's shoes" and understand them. The important thing to remember is that instead of getting upset about another person's beliefs, you just need to understand that it's their worldview speaking.
