Stepping back, resisting the (human) inclination to
draw "conclusions" or 'pass judgement'
about someones'
behavior
appearance
attitude
actions,
or choices
is a
a monumental act of human kindness
It's not about them deserving it (or not)
It's not about you being right (or wrong)
What it is, actually. is a gift you give
to that person (family, friend, coworker, stranger)
It's a gift you give to the world at large
(one less negative bit of karma slinking around)
Maybe the bewildering/annoying/obnoxious people
have a reason for
(fill in the blank with whatever they are doing that's annoying)
(or maybe they ARE just total ass*oles) lol
Either way
May as well keep your eyes on your own paper
Cause I'm pretty sure you're not gonna change the A*holes
And if someone IS in the midst of a soul crushing crisis
Odds are there's little you can do
to alter how they're coping with whatever they may be facing
It's for sure not easy
I'll admit right here, right now that some days I do better than others lol
But I keep reminding myself of something I really do think is true:
Any time you choose to take the higher road...
it's a little bit of a gift you give yourself too
'just sayin......
