Take It Easy With People
@Take It Easy With People
Take it easy with people. You may never truly fathom what someone is going through behind the smile, the silence, the anger, the withdrawal, or even the mistakes you so quickly judge. Many people are carrying scars. Some have healed, though the marks remain. Some are still fresh, tender and hurting. Some have fought battles they never had the courage to tell anyone about. And some have somehow turned their scars into trophies of survival.
So, let us be slower to judge and quicker to understand. The person who seems difficult may be fighting an invisible battle. The one who appears withdrawn may simply be exhausted from holding everything together. The one who reacted poorly may be hurting in places you cannot see. We do not have to excuse wrong behaviour, but we can choose to correct without condemning, confront without humiliating, and understand before we conclude.
Kindness soothes. Sometimes, a little kindness can do what money cannot. A gentle word can restore someone's courage. A patient response can prevent a relationship from breaking. A listening ear can give someone the strength to keep going. A simple "Are you okay?" asked sincerely can reach a place that even the most expensive gift cannot reach.
Let kindness travel in every direction: relative to relative, friend to friend, landlord to tenant, boss to employee, leader to the led, colleague to colleague, lecturer to student, teacher to learner, and stranger to stranger. We may never know whose heart our patience will heal, whose dignity our compassion will preserve, or whose hope our little act of kindness will rekindle.
Life is already hard enough. Let us not make it harder for one another. Take it easy with people. Be firm when necessary, but remain humane. Before you judge someone's chapter, remember that you have not read the whole story.
Sometimes, the greatest gift we can give another human being is simply to make life a little gentler.
Yours in fulfilment,
