let's get real

It's weird to me how we all judge each other. I see a girl walking down the street pushing a shopping cart filled with old bags and dirty clothes. I immediately assume the worst of her, and expect her to be some coke whore, when she may have lost her husband and can't find a job and is forced to be homeless. I do this to her and expect to be treated differently. Why? How does that make any sense at all? Why do we do that to other people; try to find their flaws and judge them before we know a single thing about them. I think it's because we want to make our life seem a lot better than someone else's; we put others down to make ourselves feel better, and if you think you don't do it, the only person you're fooling is yourself. Our past actions and happenings make us who we are today...the good, the bad, and the ugly. As much as you might regret something, it has formed a piece of you. So as we walk the halls of our caddy high school and eye that clumsy freshman up and down, look at yourself and know you're not perfect either. They're probably doing the same thing to you, so take in how it feels. It's real, it's raw, and it's ruling this country. Make it stop.
