Walk a Mile in My Shoes

Have you ever heard the (1) ......................................... "Walk a mile in my shoes?"

I think it is a very good saying. Do you know what it means? It means, that before you judge (2) ........................................., you should put yourself in his or her (3) ..........................................

For example, if someone was running in a race, and they did very (4) ......................................... and came in last it wouldn't be fair to say, "Oh, he's just a (5) ......................................... runner."

You would have to look at all the circumstances that made the person (6) ......................................... the race.

Maybe they pulled a muscle in their leg the day before; maybe this is their very first race;

maybe they are not in good form because something isn't right in their (7) ..........................................

There can be so many things that affect a person's life, (8) ......................................... and moods.

If someone was very (9) ......................................... at a party, you couldn't just assume that they weren't friendly.

You don't know what is (10) ......................................... in their lives.

They could be feeling ill, or they might have just had a bad experience.

Nobody can know (11) ......................................... how another person feels.

Even if someone tells you what he or she is experiencing, you still won't fully (12) ......................................... what is going on inside the other person.

Everyone perceives and feels things differently.

To walk a mile in someone else's shoes is to try and understand things from that person's perspective.

We are all (13) ......................................... by the events that have taken place in our lives.

No two people have gone through the exact same things.

So, before you are quick to (14) ......................................... someone, stop and think about what it is that they might have gone through.

You won't (15) ......................................... understand why people do what they do, but you can try to understand and put yourself in their position.

TRADITIONS AND CUSTOMS IN GREAT BRITAIN

It has been the law for about 300 years that all theatres are closed on Sundays. No letters are delivered, only a few Sunday papers are published

To this day an English family prefers a house with a garden to a flat in a modern house with central heating. English people like gardens. Sometimes the garden in front of the house is a little square covered with cement painted garden in imitation of grass and a box of flowers.

Holidays are especially rich in old traditions and are different in Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England. Christmas is a great English national holiday, and in Scotland it is not kept, except by clerks in banks, all shops and factories are working.
