Stop, we are all human.

Today something happened, I think I saw the world through someone else's eyes for only seconds, but it was enough to make me tear up. I was out at the shopping centre with my two toddlers (as you can imagine, it isn't a simple task!) anyway, I'm in Coles grabbing some bits and my eldest who is three accidental ran right infront of a ladies trolley, she hit him, he was in shock a little but over all absolutely fine, I know it was an accident and really, myself and son were at fault. She began apologising and words were just blurted out of her mouth, I said to her "it's okay, his fine, it wasn't your fault, it was an accident" this woman who
I didn't even know, burst out into
Uncontrollable tears and I'm one of those awkward people who do not know what to do when someone's upset besides supply chocolate and wine! Anyway, I obviously asked if she needed anything, and she just streamed and streamed and words can't out some of which I didn't understand. But long story short, he husband left her yesterday for someone else, and today marks exactly a year ago her son died, she decided to do her grocery shopping as a distraction but copped nothing but angry people who whole time, she was told "hurry up, move!" As she walked through the centre, she got told to just pick someone already whilst staring at the jars of receipe bases, she had someone abuse her for her parking, and so on. The girl had had a horrible day, and I nearly cried. When I came home, it got me thinking about how many times I've gottan frustrated at the person walking slowly infront of me and making it clear they irritated me and I huffed on past, or how many times I've evil glared someone for shit parking, or how many times I've just been a bit of an asshole. We are all human, we all have
One think or another happening in our lives, we can not be perfect all the time,
But what we can do, is assure someone else that there imperfection is okay. I think we get so caught up in doing what we want to do, that we forget that surrounding us, is other human prongs just trying to do the same thing. So next time your out, assure that person who apologises for staring at the shelf for ages that it's okay, assure the person who is paying 100% attention that's it's okay and you have bad days too. Be kind, be human.
