Telling a story, the story of someone else – D10

Today we started working on our autobiography. In order to do that, we had to think and write down the metaevents of our life so far. After doing this for half an hour or so, we had to group with another pioneer which we didn’t knew well. I grouped with Katarina, whom I barely knew for a little more than two weeks (since we started the MPC). The dynamic was to tell the other person my life and vice versa for 5 minutes each. Later, the other person would tell to the all the group the metaevents of his or her partner. At first, I didn’t like the idea that much, but later I figure that it was great. It was great because it made us to really listen carefully to the other person and make a greater effort to understand his or her life in order to try to tell it as precise as possible. Also it made us knew each other a lot more, create bonds of friendship, and think of how and why people behave and think the way they do. During this few days of the week I have learned an incredibly important lesson: to not judge a person before really knowing them.
