Behind the Curtain0

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” {Plato}

That person walking down the street. That coworker in the cubicle. That actor on the screen. That neighbor cutting the grass. That couple in the diner. That preacher in the church. That cashier at the store. That leader in the White House.

Everyone goes through stuff.

We’re tempted to think we’re the only ones. We’re not. Some of us have just become professionals at hiding it. But if we were to look behind the curtain, we would see a mighty struggle, a difficult decision, a relationship crack, an old wound, a void, a physical ailment, an insecurity, and more.

Our challenge is to assume everyone around us needs our encouragement, our smile, and our attention.

Because just like us, they do.
