Another realization: A person is like an empty cup whatever you pour into it fills and shapes them. I've noticed that when I spend time with a certain group of people, my previously neutral mind starts to absorb their mindset, including their judgments and biases. For example, I don't initially judge someone when I see them, but when the people around me start criticizing or speaking negatively about that person, I find myself being influenced and beginning to see them in the same light. This made me realize how powerful our environment is in shaping our perspective whether we’re aware of it or not.
