Talk about a powerful reminder of the importance of empathy and understanding:
“Everybody’s going through something, you know? Everybody’s got a little bit of a battle going on, and I think we forget that sometimes. We all got our own shit, you know? We all got our own demons, we all got our own things that we’re dealing with. And it’s easy to forget that when you’re looking at somebody else’s life and you’re like, ‘Man, they got it all together.’ But you don’t know what they’re going through behind closed doors. You don’t know what they’re struggling with. So it’s important to be kind to people, it’s important to be understanding, and it’s important to remember that we’re all in this together.”
This is a really important message, and it’s something that I’ve been trying to keep in mind more and more lately. It’s so easy to judge others, especially when we don’t know what they’re going through.
Truth is, we all have our own struggles, and we all need a bit more understanding and compassion.
