Put Yourself In Other's Shoe Before Becoming Arrogant

Every day, I prepare to write something about myself, like other people write. I have nothing to write about crypto because we have many complications and we cannot make easily profits too. Anyway, though I planned to write something else, I actually saw a video on Facebook today that inspired me to write this article. So, yeah, another article to spread positivity and good lesson.

I have countered a similar kind of video somedays ago. I don’t remember the full details but I can at least write it and maybe there will be some modifications but still I think it’ll be interesting to you guys.

The story begins with a spoiled son bumping onto a waiter at a restaurant where his dad was waiting for him. The spoiled son was kinda hurrying and was looking into the mobile. So, it was actually the fault of the son to bump into the waiter and the plates and glass fell down and was broken. Some water spilled on the shoe of the son. He got ferocious and misbehaved with the waiter then. The dad saw all of it. He sat down in front of his dad and expressed his desire to get a car as his birthday present as he recently got his driver license. The dad was listening to him. Meanwhile, the same waiter came and asked for their order. Seeing him, the son got furious and told him to get another waiter as he didn’t want to see his face. But the waiter didn’t get what the spoiled one was saying. He asked him if he could repeat. Then the son got more furious and shouted at him. The waiter then left the sight. Then the dad opened his mouth. He told him from the first place it was his sons fault to bump into him as he was looking into the phone. And it’s not good to be ideal and arrogant to them who works to get their own money. He also said to his son that he never felt hardship because of his dad’s condition and that made him arrogant. He didn’t know what’s the value of earning money his own. The dad gave a condition that, if the son could work in that café for one month without getting fired, he would buy him the car he wanted. The son couldn’t think any other way but to agree on this condition.

As soon as he started working, he got that it was not an easy job. He was finding it a hard to write all the orders. Also some arrogant people were misbehaving. He also didn’t know how to serve, wasn’t familiar with the system. Couldn’t run the machines well. The boy with whom he misbehaved previously came forward to help him unselfishly. He started teaching him the techniques and also saved him some time for arrogant peoples. They were slowly getting along.

One time, the waiter was standing on the stairs and he was looking hopeless. The son saw him and asked him what happened. He then told his problem that he has a bad hearing and some serious problem with his ear. That’s why sometimes he couldn’t hear what people are saying. Same thing happened when he was taking order from them when they first met. The son thought the waiter was mocking him but the truth was he actually couldn’t hear him then.

The son understood his problem and he took the order book and again took the order and gave the waiter the orders. He also said to the waiter not to worry much as he wouldn’t say the owner about the problem.

The hardship the son was facing was changing him. He got the value of earning his own money. Once his friend came and he went to take the order. Both were spoiled and seeing his friend working, the other one got astonished and laughed at him. Then the changed person told him about his experience and he got the value of earning of his own instead of living as a parasite. He totally gave a lecture to his friend and left after talking the order.

The month passed very soon. On the last day, the son and the waiter was leaving the café. Then the son came to know that the waiter was doing another job as he didn’t have much time eft. If he couldn’t gather the money for the operation, he would be deaf. He bade the son good bye and left in a hurry. The son returned his home.

Returning home, he told his dad about the experience and showed him his pay for one month of service. The father congratulated him and told him that he would buy the car he wanted as his present. But instead of taking the money, the son requested his father to give the money to the waiter as he was in need of it more. He wanted to help him. Hearing this, his father smiled and said he was very proud of him.

So, this is the story the video showed as far as I remember. So, what’s the main lesson of it. The main lesson I got from the story was “You would never feel others condition until you are on their shoes.” Yes, this story provided this precious lesson.

Like I said, I never felt what’s hardship is. I never had to struggle for thing I need as I had my parents support back. But it’s also true that, I never received anything luxurious but still the always taught me not to be arrogant. I have no idea about my siblings but I sensed a lot of arrogance from them but I don’t have arrogance for my social status or I would say I still don’t have one yet. It’s one of my achievement I my life. Rather it’s my dream to become a rickshaw puller, hawker, fisherman, farmer and other hard profession even for a day so that I can feel their hardship.

Ow we are fasting. It has a lot of purpose and one is to feel how the poor people feel who hardly get one meal per day. Not only this, how a people feel living in a place where he as water scarcity as well. It teaches us to respect food, earn the value of it. Not to waste even a little amount of food and also a single drop of water. Not to make fun of those who live in hardship and having their lifestyle for a month. Though I feel it is still incomplete as we eat heathy food in ifter and also get to enjoy air conditioner and ceiling fan which some people can’t even afford. Still, it’s necessary for us and so that respect and sympathy grows in for them.

Finally, I want to say is, no work is small and we don’t have right to misbehave with the working class people no matter how powerful we are. They serve us and in return they earn money legally. Simple as that. So, before we hurt them, at least we should put ourselves in their shoes and think where would I be if I had to live in his condition. And up next I would write not to be judgmental about anything without knowing their back story. For now, I think this is enough to reach people here and my friends, brothers and sisters.

And there is both Youtube video and total story as a script in a page called Amo Mama( I just found out). Please check them for more details. They had written perfectly. I just found out😑.

Thanks for reading. Hope you like the article.
