We could all use a little bit more compassion in life. What if the person driving slowly in front of you just had some really bad news? What if the person who cut you off in traffic is rushing to the hospital? What if the person showing up late is going through something difficult at home? What if the waitress who messed up your order is on their first day and feeling anxious? What if the friend who cancelled plans is struggling to hold it all together? What if the person who seemed rude has had an argument with a loved one before they saw you? Sometimes people are going through things in their own world that we will never know about, it's not about letting people walk all over you but giving them the benefit of the doubt might just help ease your frustration. The world needs more kindness, compassion and empathy. None of us are perfect, we all make mistakes and we're all struggling with something.
