“An enemy is a person whose story we have not heard” by Gene Knudson Huffman
This quote means that since we don’t know somebody else intentions we probably assume that he is doing something that is going to affects us. If we take the time to hear someone else story we would stop seeing the as enemies. Sometimes you would get hurt by strangers and immediately you would see them as a enemy. Most of the cases when this happens and someone takes the time to hear their enemy story they understand their reason and not see them as an enemy anymore.

I agree on some aspects but some people are just out to do harm even if their story is good. They can have a perfect life but because they don't get their way once, they go crazy
ReplyDeleteOn this post I have one main quote "Don't judge the book by it's cover"cause you never know whats inside of it. It's the same thing here many of the times we as people say we have enemies but many of the times those people who we think are, are enemies are the closes people that will be there for us if we need them.
ReplyDeleteI agree, like what mickey09 said, the quote that comes to mind is don't judge a book by its cover and that is something we all have done at least once.
ReplyDeleteWell i dont think that everybody assumes that the people they dont know are plotting agianst them you just need to get to know them is all.
ReplyDeleteThis can not only relate to people but to countries as well I believe. We live in a world of fear, insecurity, greed and full of corruption. Big and powerful countries always tend to not trust small and unknown countries, because of this we immediately make enemies. Now there are times where there is something that we know from a country that truly turns them into enemies. But for those who have done nothing to us and told us what their story is we should always give them the benefit of the doubt. How else can we build a better world if not by trusting others without judging them first.
