One of my sons and I were working on a wordfind for his spelling lesson yesterday. He hates these very much, claiming that he was never taught how to do them properly. I found the words he had the most trouble finding were the ones spelled backwards. As I was helping him see these words from a different perspective, I noticed something. Hidden in the words "ridicule" and "ridiculous" is the word "lucid." So I wonder...Before resorting to ridicule, do we need to look at the actions and ideas of others from their perspective no matter how backwards they may seem? In other words, within the ridiculous is something lucid hidden?
