Never judge (or be judged) by the actions of our weakest moment.
People make mistakes. We are all human.
I wholeheartedly believe that most people are good – and want to do good.
But, sometimes, stress or situations out of their control bring out the worst in us.
Like the term “Sonder” coined by John Koenig describes: “The realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own – populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries, and inherited craziness…”
For that reason, try not to judge.
Instead, ask questions and find out why they behaved that way.
Sometimes, the answers that you get will surprise you.
Choose to believe in the good in all people.
Choose to believe that most people want to do right and care about others.
Choose to believe that in the end, things will always work out.
Choose to believe that you are exactly where you are supposed to be, and all things happen for a reason.
Look, you have a choice in life – so why not choose the right things?
