There
is a legend about a wise man who was sitting outside his village. A
traveler came up and asked him, "What kind of people live in this
village, because I am looking to move from my present one?" The wise man
asked, "What kind of people live where you want to move from?" The man
said, "They are mean, cruel, rude." The wise man replied, "The same kind
of people live in this village too." After some
time another traveler came by and asked the same question and the wise
man asked him, "What kind of people live where you want to move from?"
And the traveler replied, "The people are very kind, courteous, polite
and good." The wise man said, "You will find the same kind of people
here too."
What is the moral of the story?
Generally we see the world not the way it is but the way we are. Most of the time, other people's behavior is a reaction to our own.
