Dancing to a different tune

Cameroon, Lobe River.
So,

There is a party !, yeaay !

Everybody dancing to a song (let's call it song A)

Yet, there is a guy, in his own corner dancing to a very different tune,
a different song, different style, with earphones plugged in his ears. (let's call it song B)

Now, all song A people start wondering at what in the world this lone, stupid, incoherent, weird song B guy is doing.
for the lone guy, it totally makes sense. in his own world, he's doing the right thing.
apparently not for the others.

This, in my opinion illustrates the fact that it's sometimes really tricky to judge somebody without taking into consideration the angle he sees things from.

It might, sometimes be that things viewed from our perspective are right, and also that viewed from somebody else's perspective are also right. sometimes, there is no wrong or right. sometimes, it just is.
