Write a blog post reflecting on a time when you or someone you know was misunderstood because of a single story. How can limiting ourselves to one perspective be harmful? What can we do to make sure we see people and cultures more fully?
I have a friend, Jake, who is often misunderstood because of a single story. People say he’s mean because he’s blunt and doesn’t sugarcoat his words. But what they don’t see is the way he always checks in on his friends when they’re struggling or how he stayed up all night helping me study for an important test. Yes, he can be straightforward, but that doesn’t mean he’s unkind. This experience showed me how harmful it is to judge someone based on one side of their personality. To truly understand people, we have to look beyond first impressions and give them a chance to show all the sides of who they are.
