Sociological Mindfulness/Imagination


This video I wasn't really able to put myself into one others shoes. So I wasn't really able to get a grasp on what this guy was saying. When the speaker was talking about thinking about how a family would feel if we came into their country and started going after oil. Then we tried telling them that they shouldn't be scared and stuff but when we see them as terrorists and rag heads and everyone always hates them. People feel like the Iraqis look at us the same.
I felt sociologically mindful when I had lost my grandpa and then dealt with other people losing their grandparents and I was able to help them get through the tough time and I was able to give them comfort and able to tell them that eventually everything was going to be alright.
I would put THE Donald Trump on the list because of the fact that he had sent bombs over to Iran and blew up one of their commanders and to me that is really ballsy and deserves to be given some props and thanks to. Like Mr. Reints said they should have gotten rid of the Iran Commander a long time ago.
I see myself fitting into the big picture of society by putting my sixty some odd years of work in as a diesel technologist and helping other people when their machines break down and they call whoever I will be working for in the future and my boss tells me to go out and fix whatever needs to be fixed. The customer is always right even when they are wrong. I will make the customer happy even if they are upset that they broke whatever machine that they were working on and I will try to fix it as fast as humanly possible without messing it up even worse for them.

  1. Your experiences allow you to fully appreciate empathy and sociological imagination. He should have went along time ago but someone different would have replaced him and it would have been the same situation. It's more important for both sides to understand why he should have been dealt with in the past so we don't have to deal with a replacement just like him.
