Worth Noting:
- Talking to cargo drivers you will hear that some cannot want to be associated with passenger service vehicles as they do not want anyone noisy as they go on with their work whereas passenger service vehicle drivers would narrate how they enjoy interacting with other people and offering them transport services.
- To a teacher or non-security professions they would associate weapons with violence and would avoid having them around whereas the security person would be glad to have weapons claiming that they promote security by making a potential trouble maker to cool down for fear that someone is available and willing to deal with him.
The shoe that fits one person pinches another, there is no recipe living that suits all cases…………Carl Jung.
A sweet is cheap but cannot make you feel full like the person who has consumed other types of food. To an adult giving him a sweet or not will not mean a lot but to a kid it may make him like or hate you.
The same case is to a cigarette among smokers especially in early morning hours or when under stress if your colleague does not have it and upon borrowing it from you or seeking a puff you deny him he will be upset with you unlike when dealing with a nonsmoker who will have no interest with your cigarettes no matter how many packets you have or the price of each stick. Some nonsmokers will even complain whenever you smoke in their presence claiming that they dislike the smoke.
Those you reside in the same area are familiar with it. Though unlikely if they happen to ask you about a certain corner in that area but you fail to respond to them they would not mind much as they know other people they can seek same information from otherwise they can go to that place and clarify whatever they wished to know.
If you apply same conditions to a stranger who have visited your area for the first time he will feel frustrated as he does not know the area and have to seek information from another person before knowing which direction he is supposed to take.

Swimmers enjoy refreshing and flexing their muscles under water but those who do not like such sports will wonder why someone is spending time in water yet he has not gone there to take a shower.
Women and girls generally prefer long hairs. To them it is a sign of beauty. When they see bald men or those who shave all their hairs they wonder why the latter does not appreciate the beauty associated with long hairs.
Those who use flight to travel to certain areas have no complains of road network unlike their colleagues who go by bus.
To some gospel music singers listening to secular music is a waste of time whereas to secular musicians they take secular songs as their livelihoods even strive to excel their performances in these areas.
Looking around where you are you will see people of various heights, skin colours, tones and ages. Posing to them a question you will get various answers according to how everyone of them understands the topic that you are discussing. Despite varying of answers everyone would like to sound correct. This shows you how different we were created and how best we try to fit in varying situations. Wisdom dictates that we learn to enjoy unity in diversity.
