They say you shouldn’t judge a person until you have walked a mile in their shoes. Let’s say someone gave you a pair of shoes that, when worn, allowed you to do just that. For one week you would experience the following:

Sunday – Being Gay/Straight
Monday – Being a Man/Woman
Tuesday – Being a Christian/Atheist
Wednesday – Being Wealthy/Poor
Thursday – Being White/Non-White
Friday – Being Drug User/Non-Drug User
Saturday – Being ME!

The opposite of your normal every day experience is the experience that would apply to you. Which day would you most look forward to? Which would you dread the most? Could you even handle an entire week outside of your comfort zone?
