Don't judge.

You saw him slipping his hand in a man's pocket & you tagged him a thief;
You saw her going out after midnight & you labeled her characterless;
You saw him staring at a little girl & you judged him malevolent;
You saw her screaming at her Dad & you judged her spoiled.

The boy you saw, he was helping the blind man keep the money safe.
The woman, she was going to get her drunk brother safe home.
The man you saw, he was missing her late daughter.
And the girl screamed  because his father was hitting her mother.

Your classmate started wearing earrings; your friend cut short her hair.
The guy wanted to join your group but you said he was not cool, now with his piercing you say he's a fool.
Irrespective of loving her hairs, she shortened them as a bully glued chewing gums to them.


You heard she's a slut, so you decided to let your feelings die inside of you ;
You never understood that the rumors were started by a boy whom she refused to date.
You made fun of the guy who wore full sleeved shirt on a sunny day;
You never realized he was concealing the scars that resulted from his suicide attempt.

That girl you called too skinny, gained weight due to depression
And the one you called fat, is hospitalized for hypoglycemia.
The boy you called geek, is struggling to get scholarship for college.
And the boy you beat for being gay, is already fighting for his identity at home.

One of your colleague started going home late and you started making fun of his routine.
Another one started taking more leave and you judged her bone-idle.
One was coping with his failing marriage and other was tired of being hit on by the boss.

Wherever you live, wherever you work, don't judge! Everyone in their own ways are struggling in life; working their own way out. In spite of making fun of them and laughing at them, try to hear them out and laugh with them.

The girl at the corner, who smokes might have had a financial/relationship trouble.
The boy who fails his test might have some other talents.
The one who keeps forgetting her lines on stage might have serious anxiety and the one who prays a lot might have only few days to live.

The one who makes everyone laugh, might be fighting with his demons alone. 
The kid who works overnight might be saving for his ailing mother.
The one who bully others would have been a victim before.
Stop the cycle before it gets too late.

You might not know who's at the verge of breaking down, tired of fake smiling at the society.
Don't judge. It won't do any good for anyone.

Everyone have his or her own reason for actions and things they do, No one knows the real story of a person , he/she really lives in. A perfect piece of work and we are no one to judge or comment on others
