ASSUMPTION

Assumption, the most widespread virus that grips humanity. And here are some examples I give to prove my point..

1. Interviewee - He assumes he is not worth it. He feels dejected.

2. Interviewer rejects interviewee - He assumes we are not fit for the job just because we are nervous.

3. A friend does not pay attention - We assume she does not care anymore whereas she just might be deep in thought about something which cannot be talked about.

4. D.I.L about M.I.L or vice-versa - They both assume they will not get along with each other simply because that has become a norm in the society.

5. Husband and wife - Assumptions all through. Lack of communication and non-acceptance of who they are.

6. Father and Son - Ego, adolescence, no expression of love and thus assumptions that distance them from each other, towards no point of return.

7. An unappreciative boss - We assume he lacks compassion. In reality, he might himself be enduring a cruel boss.

I can go on and on but my list is illimitable.

Let us cease to be victims of assumption and realise that we are merely victims of our circumstances.

Let us start considering things from others perspective and understand their beliefs and their fears which make them what they are.

There is a film called 'Freaky Friday', where a mother and teenage daughter exchange bodies. It's a hilarious comedy where they both get to experience what it's like to be the other person and be in their situation.

We really do not need the power to exchange bodies. We as human beings already have been granted with immense potential to understand others viewpoints. All we need to do is put in the effort.

Think about it... its worth it..
