I came by this story through one of my 'youthful' participants last week...
"A Filipino overseas worker was riding a bus in Dubai.
When she looked at the man beside her, she shook her head and rolled
her eyes, apparently not liking what she saw: a large man with very
dark brown skin and workman's clothes. She called to her friend in the
other row, saying:
'Pwede bang lumipat diyan? Mukhang unggoy yung katabi ko! '
There was no space up front so she had to stay in her seat.
At the next stop, a Filipino man entered the bus, saw a familiar face and said:
'O pare, kamusta?'
To which the brown-skinned man answered :
'Eto, paunggoy-unggoy lang.' :)
I wonder how small that woman felt afterwards...
More often than not, the price of judging someone is that you end
up with a monkey on your back. From Christianity to Islam, Buddhist
monks to Kabbalist sages, all spiritual sources say the same thing -
"Don't judge, unless you want to be judged." It doesn't matter how you
try to disguise your judgment. It always comes back to you.
This week, we're going to leave our judging glasses at our
bedside tables when we wake up. Would you like to join us? Or is that
a monkey you're going to see when you look in the mirror? :)
All the best,
Luigi
