Oftentimes, we tend to believe that others in our lives and those we meet must be pretty happy, content and satisfied with their lives. We see them from the outside and unless they confide in us, we don’t really know them, do we? What we fail to realize, is that every one of us with no exception is fighting a battle big or small, we know nothing about. There are many that struggle daily with terminal illness and a great number of health issues, all forms of cancer, depression & bipolar, trying to get through another day fighting alcoholism and drug abuse, putting an end to their smoking, are challenged by their own disabilities and handicaps, dealing with anxiety and stress, fear and worry over the loss of a loved one, a divorce, a death, homelessness, hardship by financial burdens and great responsibility from the care of an elderly parent to the responsibilities of a young child as a single parent. They smile, they are positive and optimistic in spite of it all, rarely giving others an opportunity to see what’s really going on or even a hint that something is wrong. Never look down on anyone, unless you’re willing to lift them up. Be kind to everyone you meet and remember to always have a great respect for those who have every reason to complain and don’t!
