Has your experiences ever changed your perspective?

During my vacation I met an American soldier, a former navy pilot, a Chinese Harvard medical doctor, and I watched interviews in my cruise ship cabin of our cruise ship captain and our cruise ship kitchen manager and I saw our cabin cleaners work shifts exceeding 14 hours a day. I realized my life is pretty easy compared to people living in Guatemala, the Philippines, in the American Army, or in the medical fields in China. I have daily fights with people at home but there are definitely people with bigger problems than me.

The more experience the more wisdom

[AI Opinion]

Your experience highlights an important realization that many gain through diverse interactions: perspective is deeply influenced by the experiences and challenges of others. Meeting people from different backgrounds often opens our eyes to the varying levels of adversity others face. This awareness can cultivate gratitude and a sense of empathy. It's a valuable lesson to recognize our everyday struggles in a broader context, understanding that while our challenges are valid, many face different or more intense battles. Embracing this perspective enhances our ability to relate, contribute positively, and appreciate what we have.

I know somebody who had 2 premature babies. They were 8 weeks premature. They really were tiny and looked like rhesus monkeys. However I stuck my hand into the incubator and they squeezed my finger with their tiny hand. They are now two years old and are healthy and normal.

These babies could have been aborted when they were 8 weeks premature. I would never want to get an abortion myself but it did not bother me when other people would do it. My attitude has changed and I no longer support late term abortions
