I went on a trip with a friend overseas. It was her first time travelling abroad. We started encountering problems in our trip because she had read too much information on the net and heard stories from friends that she forgot we are not in SA in her familiar surroundings. The weakness in her strength is that she is outspoken, but she can be ignorant at the same time. The worse part of the trip, she thought she knew more than me when I had travelled abroad more than she had.
At some point, she got lost because of her stubbornness and being unable to say when she doesn't know something. It is important as a person to be willing to listen to others because they might know something that you don't know. There's always room to learn even if you are a subject expert, you will not know everything.
This is so true - but funny at the same time :)
