Life has a way of teaching us things with or without consent. The best thing I heard in a long time was that beliefs do not tell us who you are behavior does. I am not here to defend myself in anyway. Sometimes I sit back and find it entertaining how people have this set notion of who they think you are. They have built so many assumptions, preconceived ideas and judgments in their heads. The biggest suggestion I have in getting to know someone is to drop all judgements and assumptions. Then and only then will you get to know someone. If you don't, you will constantly be frustrated and wondering why they don't fit into your own selfish agenda. Embrace someone that is different from you. Accept it. We do not have to immediately attempt to repress, control and discipline others based on our own fear and ego. Entertaining.
