just a thought
Just having thoughts about how you never know someone's situation so don't pretend or assume you do. It's so true though, think about it. You never ever know what someone is going through. What about that car that raced by a while ago and cut you off and you yelled at them, possibly cursing, giving them the finger..they could have been getting to a family emergency. What about the other car a different day... could have been a husband getting his wife who is in labor to the hospital. What about the lady with a bad attitude at the store... any chance she just lost a family member or she is really sick with a life threatening illness or she just lost a job. The thing is... you don't know. You couldn't know unless they told you. What if that ornery person just was having a sucky day and could have used a smile. What if that person got a smile from you and they thought " hey, maybe today really isn't so bad" then they turn and smile at someone else and they smile at someone else. Maybe that could make someone's day. Maybe not. Couldn't hurt. You may not know why someone is rude or driving that way- maybe they really were just a rude driver but thats the thing.. you have no idea so why let it bother you? It is already over with.. move on, smile and think of something happy. Why let a quick incident ruin a perfectly good day. Every day you are the lucky one who got to wake up. You get another day. Pretty cool huh? So walk out into that beautiful sunshine and smile at a stranger today. please?
