The Importance Of Being Able To See A Situation From Another Person's Point Of View


" Nothing is beautiful form another person view "
The quote means that everybody see different things from another person's view. Every one has an different idea or aspect of what perfection or beauty  is it. Another person's view its important because most of the time we thing that the opinions of another person aren't important but they're. Everyone most respect the others people point of view. Most of the people don't know how important is the another person view.

The importance of seeing the situation from another person's view could help us and help the person that is having the problem, into resolving the problems easier. It could help us also in learn about our family and friendship and to understand ourselves better. We can understand how the other person feels while they are telling us the problem. When we see things from our point of view its impossible to understand how the other person feels and the way they react. We also get to know the experience of them and we can see the perspective of the problem that they are having. 


All the persons wants to feel heard and understood. We always talk about our point of view to get the other person to see things our way. If we do this all the time we can focus on the other person's point of view but nobody would feels understood. Sometimes it takes effort to see the see the situation of another persons view. We can understand what the person problems is but we can't understand how they feel.


Its good to see the situation from another persons view because it help us to realize something that we maybe not have been realized. It help us to understand what the person is thinking about or what means. Must of us aren't always right we actually learn something by viewing the other person point of view. If we are opening ourself we would be a better person. Most of the persons would listening to our problems and try to help us. It helps to save conflicts about other persons.

Persuasive Essay - Television is a Bad Influence

Television could be a good and a bad influence. There are good and bad aspects of television news. At the same time it could be a good influence because we can learn skills like cooking and other activities that kids enjoy. Back in the days television was a great invention but it  has become a major problem for the society. In my opinion it's a bad influence because it changes people's mind, sometimes television don't inform the right programs or information and it shows violence, obesity and brain development.

Television must of the time don't show to the society the right things that are happening. They show edit videos that doesn't tell us the truth and make us think different. The Governments usually use the media such as Tv to generate false news  just to get public support. The news often are negative. These false news that can be produced by foreigner or local governments just for only to attract the attention of the society into believing that they're telling the truth. 

Most of the programs or cartoons that television shows contain violence or aggression. Children are going to start to believe that violence doesn’t really hurt others. Television reduces the value of life. I have seen that tv makes death seem funny and unreal. Children don't learn to respect life because of the violence that television shows. Children can't tell the difference between real and unreal, people that are on the tv are actors and the story that they're telling is not true. How can children tell the difference between real violence and the make believe violence. There are a lot of young children that are unable to realize that when a character attacks someone it is not real, many young children still believe in the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus. If children are always viewing their favorite characters using violence or aggression to get what they want, children will do the same.

The television has taken over the most important past time for kids and adults. Kids used to play outside all day running, climbing or doing something active. Children and adults spend hours sitting or eating being completely inactive. Health problems has developed and television has caused or contributed to childs and adults obesity. The energy that we consume from food needs to be used up by the body. There are other ther factors that also contribute to child obesity, but television is a major one, and it's originate at home.

Children and adults should not watch tv. I think television its a bad influence because its violent and the television acts as an educator and its not educating us. It draws attention to the kids to buy junk food, fast food, beer and other stufs. Everyone must don't watch tv and should spend the time during another activities that won't cause obesity. People should think better what the news is telling us because must of the time don't says the truth. In my opinion television is brainwash.
