Not everyone knows your history.

The way you move and the manner you speak.

They don’t know the challenges you constantly overcome.

Or the people that you have had to interact with.

Those that were less kind to your face or indirectly.

All those that did not have best intentions for you at heart.

***

They may not understand you.

A wrong move or help you did not need.

An accident that was not intended.

There may be discomfort or pain.

Humiliation and frustration.

The outcome you want the least.

***

Patience is needed.

They are not the same as those that brought torment.

Misguided but trying to be helpful.

Ignorant in a way you can enlighten with a warm heart.

People always have the capacity to learn.

Life improved for yourself and others when all you need is a little grace.
