Stepping outside ourselves

It would be great to be able to step outside ourselves and live inside the skin of others for a while. If nothing else it would make us realize just how much living in our heads encourages the loss of perspective. We are tempted to think the world revolves around us when clearly it doesn't.

I cannot accomplish this feat but I can try as much as possible to question why I feel a certain way about something. I look for my prejudices and ask if they are truly warranted and whether I am just looking to criticize so as to elevate my own position versus seeking truth.
