I was thinking about people and how they are and I've decided to try not to judge people so much. Everyone has a story, a reason, for being the way they are. Everyone has gone through a lot, and you can't really judge someone without knowing their story, if that makes any sense. I mean, I was thinking about it, and if you take a minute to stop and look at the way people are, a lot of times, they only act the way they do because of things that have happened to them in the past.

My mom and I were talking about someone that I know and how they grew up. I hadn't really liked them all that much but when she was telling me about them, I felt really bad because I realized why they act the way they do. It wasn't to be annoying or mean; it was just how they had dealt with a situation.

We've all been influenced by everything in our past; we all have a story to tell. To just judge someone without knowing their story is really unfair to them.

This makes sense in my head, but I'm bad with words.
