During the counselling ethics class taught by Sunita today, we were discussing values, so given the following list:
we were supposed to rank them according to their importance in our own value system.
When Maithili and Shelly discussed their values, I commented on it, commenting "caged bird", and "that explains why you're wearing like that".
Thinking back, I shouldn't have said those. It doesn't add any value to the lesson. While what I said was spontaneous, it doesn't do anyone any good when I made those comments. In fact, if I were in their positions, I wouldn't want those comments to be made on me as well.
I need to realize this issue and not make the same mistake again.
