Respect a Person Who’s Going Through Crap

by

Being in a dressing room can be challenging. Life happens. People are always going through crap in their lives and pushing through it. It totally sucks. I am pointing this out because it is so easy to get caught up in my own situation. Heck, I do it all the time. Then, I forget about myself and start paying attention to others and find myself wanting to be Ms. Fix It. Don’t worry, I didn’t butt in and become a royal pain. People are going to have ups and downs in life. and some of them will be really bad. If he/she wants to talk to me about it, I will let that person come to me. I am available and ready for any help I can offer. In the meantime, I keep a respectful distance and focus on the positive. Maybe that will have a way to help the person cope - only hearing positive things come from my mouth.
So, before you judge a person on any day, keep your ear open and seek to understand where the person is coming from … until you know, don’t judge. Be open, supportive, and loving. Positive energy is key. cardback.jpg
