Errors in judgment

Put yourself in another person’s shoes for a few minutes

June 27th 2026
Human beings are not in the habit of putting themselves into the shoes of others, and this leads to many errors of judgment, and much cruelty and injustice. We do not know another person’s circumstances. Which is why, before you start accusing someone, you should make an effort to put yourself in their place for at least five minutes. You may then realize that, if you were in their position, you would have behaved ten times worse. Do this exercise just a few minutes every day and you will acquire qualities of nobleness, patience, tolerance and gentleness.
Yes, from now on try, for just a few minutes, to put yourself in the shoes of all the people you find so unpleasant and difficult to put up with. You will see it is impossible not to understand and love them.
