I love this story, never assume we’re always right.

It is from a poem 'The Cookie Thief' by Valerie Cox. I think due credit should be given to the original writer 2:52

there is a story that i heard. i want to share it
“a son asked his dad to invite 100 of his friends to his party. the dad went out and instead of telling them “come to the party tomorrow”, he told all of them “my son is extremely sick, could you guys come over tomorrow to be there for him”. the next day only 5 people came, the son asked the dad where his friends where. the dad told him, these are your real friends.

Many people naturally come to assumptions on seeing people do certain things, when the reality is usually much deeper. Beautiful story, the generosity of the man sharing his cookies was how we should all aim to be

That man was such a good person. He shared his cookies with a person he never knew. 👏.

My preschooler (now grown) had a year-end school party at one of the classmates homes so they could play/swim. Since it was the last day everyone brought appreciation gifts for the teacher. I noticed one little girl off to herself w her head down as the teacher was opening the gifts & oohing/aahing. I immediately put 2/2 together & said I’d be right back. There was a Hallmark one block away so I quickly went and purchased a gift w a card & hurried back. I pulled her to the side & asked if she’d like to give it to her teacher & her eyes lit up & she couldn’t get to the teacher fast enough. I don’t know why she didn’t have one to give & it certainly wasn’t required but I could see she wanted to have something & maybe her parents didn’t have time or the resources. I’d been there myself, countless times. All I knew is it was important to her & I had the ability to help, so I did.

I think most of us are guilty of judging others
Peace everyone 😊

Lord keep me strong
so i will not judge others .

Before you judge someone, get your head out of your own arse and realise you're eating someone else's food.

"The best apology is changed behavior"

That makes a global sense

I started to tear up. This story will make me a better human being.

Three years ago I took my 92 year old mother to sit at a public concession area overlooking a lovely nearby beach.
While going up the ramp she started having some twinges in her neck area which also moved to her shoulder.
Concerned, I googled “heart attack symptoms in women”, saw some similarities in her condition, and explained to her maybe we should call an ambulance. She angrily refused, thinking I was wrong, so I told her to stay put so I could get the car which was parked a distance away.
Driving back, in order to get close to her, I had to drive on something like a wide pathway, and some angry beachgoers screamed some nasty profanities at me while I was struggling to get by them. We spent hours in the emergency room and the hospital, she had to have a stent put in her artery, was home for a bit but then 6 months later died from bladder cancer.
I just remember my anxiety hearing the people yelling at me, thinking “please don’t be so angry - my mother, my mother!” While I was trying to rush to her.
My patience with others has improved a lot.

That was brilliant. We need to realize that it's not about "me", we are here for everyone else. To love and serve one another. Give everything you can, cause it all comes back in the end better than before. He did realize on the way out and gave

It’s so embarassing really! But the moral lesson here, don’t judge someone for in the end you’ll be judge too! I really
loved the story! 😍

I was in a grocery store at 11pm.The store was fairly empty.A man kept staring at me.When I moved to another section of the store, there he was again staring at me. I thought oh great, this guy is either trying to pick me up or is a stalker.As it was late, there was only one lane open to pay for my groceries.There he was in front of me! I hesitated but thought, ok I'll get the security guard to walk me out.As I stood there I could hear his conversation with the cashier.He began to tell her that his mother had just died that day & he had no one to talk to about it.I felt absolutely horrible that I had made such a gross mistake in prejudging this brokenhearted man.I immediately gave him a hug & began to talk to him.I listened to him as he poured his heart out.I let him cry until he was all cried & talked out.I prayed with him & told him that his mom was happy & in the arms of Jesus & she would be waiting for him to join her. I have tears in my eyes right now thinking about that man. I shall never forget that night. I'm so glad that you made this video so I could share my story of the man in the grocery store.

That happened to me a couple years ago, it humbled me to the bone. I was quick to judge and that person I was judging ended up helping me not knowing that with out that help I would have lost everything. Definitely made me change my view on people, and try to understand their situation.
