Final Reflection

World views are important, they show more than a little personality, they show a way of seeing and viewing the world that has yet to be thought of. The idea of a world view is very simple in many ways, its how we view the people and world around us. For me it is something a bit more complex than that, it goes deeper, to a level of experience that people can only dream of. A world view isn’t just something we have, it is something we show, a way we act that the world can emulate.When it comes to seeing a new culture or country perspective is key, not just where you are, but where you come from, why it makes you feel the way it does. Something is only foreign if we don’t try and picture where it comes from. One of the lasting lessons I was taught while overseas was how to deal with this sort of change, this new place. Everything is foreign, how do you relate? By picturing the world through their eyes, by realizing the only reason this seems strange or off is because my culture doesn’t do it. If there is one thing this class has taught me it is patience and the significance of looking through someone elses eyes, trying to run a mile in their shoes.
