In a pivotal moment, I experienced a profound shift in how I viewed developmental disabilities. Suddenly, my perception changed, leading to different thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The irritation I once felt was replaced by compassion and empathy for a man's pain. This transformation highlights the importance of seeing through another's eyes, as inspired by Stephen R. Covey's teachings in "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People." Understanding and empathy can lead to life-changing interactions, making us re-evaluate our attitudes and responses.
