It goes beyond the appearance, the fame and your thoughts
Let me explain…
Many a time and all of the time, most people are going through hard times especially the ones you think are having great times. Just like our 'go to guy' for laughter Robin Williams.
I always thought the Mr Robin Williams I saw in Mrs Doubtfire, Jumanji, World's Greatest Dad, A Night at the Museum had no relationship with depression let alone suicide.
But I was wrong. I saw the funny Robin Williams. I laughed at his jokes. But I was unaware of his personal battles that raged beneath the surface.
How can I be so ignorant!
People are going through all kinds of challenging times. Only shallow people are deceived by appearances, wealth and fame
And when I say 'Hard Times', finances are the very least on the list. People carry all sorts of emotional weights, depression, loss of things that might be irrelevant to you but the world to them.
Complex scenarios that they can't even comprehend much more open up to you.
We need to be more patient in our judgement of others and keep our caustic remarks under check. Especially on social media, where the loose tongues and fingers come out at all times
People go through life issues, that if you know, you'd be more understanding and tolerant, even more generous with your reasoning.
Usually, it takes time, caution, care, patience, discernment and inner-security to discover them in people.
The least you can do is to not add to the list. With false perceptions, wrong judgement and the list goes on and on.
Remember, a good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, work effectively, and realize how blessed you are to be alive.
Henceforth, be a dependable shoulder. You have been given to give. Saved to save. Forgiven to forgive, and helped to help.
Have a great day ahead
