But thank you for you gentleness and kindness, it helped me to think about things differently. Sometimes I don't see others perspectives as well as I should.
I disagree with you. You do a lot of effort to put yourself on someone else’s shoes. The fact that you still want to improve in this aspect, it’s a proof for me.

I’m not kind. I see what I see. And when I see very clear something, I say it because it’s fair and I admire people who are like you.

Let’s say that you react a little with your friend but it was because you were afraid of what could happen with him and people around him.

I criticised my sister’s father-in-law when he went to hunt and he got infected. I couldn’t put myself on his shoes in this situation but it doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate him. Only that time, I understood he was being irrational and putting people at risk.

The best is to avoid argument and say what you think in a good manner to see if the other person is prone to listen to what you have to say. If not, let him to realise by himself.
How in the earth we are gonna ask you for you to put more on another person’s shoes if you do it, constantly. It’s obvious in this thread but I also read other posts from you on other threads. So I don’t speak out of the blue.
