"If you were another person, would you like to be a friend of yours?"
This quote means that if you were in another persons shoes and saw your personality, would you be approachable? Another way to say this quote is to imagine if you were a totally different person, and you yourself today still existed. If you approached the person you are, do you think you would like to be friends with yourself?
This quote relates to teenagers in this generation because we've all seen or have been a victim of a bully. Many bullies don't even realize that they are hurting people's feelings by what they're saying. Sometimes I feel people don't realize words hurt, but if they are in somebody else's shoes and saw their personality I bet they would be surprised on how rude they are.
Sometimes I feel people should just stop and think that if whatever they have said in the past was said to them directly what would their reaction be? Happy, sad, surprised, or maybe not surprised? I feel this quote is crucial, and many more people should really look at them selves, and ask themselves if they're a bully.
Exactly. Always think before you speak. You don't want to lose friends just because of a couple words slipping out by accident.
