So, someone picks up a colored chalk and draws a large one-digit figure on a tarred crossroad in his estate and walks away. Mr. A comes out of his house and sees the number written on the ground and rushes back in to place a phone call. He dials the number of his friend (Mr. B) who lives opposite his apartments and beckons on him to step out of his house and look at what he saw on the crossroad. Mr. B says   “Hey, who wrote a “9” on the road?” Mr. A replies “No, it’s “6”, can’t you see it?” This banter goes on for a while till an “alleged” old wise man walks by and settles their argument by saying, no one is really right or wrong, they both have to step out of their houses and see from the other person’s perspective.
