I often ask myself these questions:
- Do I understand others? What does it mean to understand others? Does it mean that people must use the same language and habits?
- Is understanding a simple thing to show or is it a habit that must be cultivated?
- Do I understand why people treat life differently?
- Do I understand that understanding is often impossible or even unnecessary and uninvited?
- Can we say that it is our human duty to understand each other?
- Or is it again a kind of inborn instinct of survival to limit our understanding of others?

I think an inborn instinct (or a bad habit?) is to look for people similar to us and to protect ouselves from strangeness (it's a wide and very individual notion). And understanding is an important and essential step in our development that shows our cultural level and an ability to overcome selfishness. At the same time it isn't our duty, it's free choice.

I don't understand people who evaluate a person by his or her clothes and material state. Such things don't show an inner world of people.
I don't understand people who are always rude and unfriendly to others. We must'n lose a chance to meet new friends.
I don't understand people who love only theirself. Selfish people are usually unhappy.
