NARRATOR
What is your view of the world? How do you see things? What makes you who you are? On what do you base your decisions? Why did you react like that? Do you believe in God or a higher power? Or do you see the world as a cocktail of chance and accident?
Everyone has a worldview, whether religious or not. Each individual sees the world through a certain lens. It may be shaped by your upbringing, surroundings, or religion. And it can change as you move through life. Worldview can be both personal and organised. It is your attitudes and deeply held beliefs. It shapes how you live.
It’s important to think about your own worldview. Where do you think truth lies? What about the worldviews of those around you? Do you understand them? They may not be as similar to yours as you expect. Or, perhaps, your worldviews will be more alike.
Some people may feel that life is about success and improvement, being the best you can be. And some think it’s about helping the most vulnerable in society. Others may believe belonging to a group is vital for finding meaning, while another treasures belonging to the Earth in all its beauty. And still, most of us will not see the world through only one lens but rather through a blend of multiple visions.
In an increasingly pluralistic society, understanding the world around us means realising that there is no neutral perspective. Nobody stands nowhere. Do you know where you stand? And why?
