I am in awe at how horrible people can be. It seems like we all, sometimes, forget the fact that those around us are living, breathing, FEELING creatures.
A person who has endured difficulty... in anyway, never deserves to be mocked for it. And yet, they almost always are.
Why can't we all just defend and protect the weak? Why can't we just love those who NEED LOVE? Why does it always have to be this game of mockery and heartache... "let's see who can make this person cry hardest!!!"? I'm awed, completely. Whether these experiences happen face-to-face, or behind a persons back, it's completely wrong.
No, I'm not the one who was mocked. I was a spectator. I didn't see what happened, but I heard about it... from the "mocker" himself. I'm trying to figure out how to approach the situation. I don't know what to say... how to correct the wrong. But, I know deep down, I have to say or do something.
How about we all set a goal to just cheer each other on! We don't have to compete... we don't have to know who is stronger, who is smarter, who is more capable... let's just love everyone, encourage them to do their best, and then salute them.

Excellent idea. I'm in!
Amen sister!!! There is so much negativity in the world... why can't we all just choose to look at the positive. Service others more. Put our energy to good use. Good Luck!!!
I so agree...why can't people just be nice? What happened to holding the door open, smiling at strangers, not rushing by when someone needs help...where are our manners?!?!?!
This is something I BELIEVE so strongly in. It is truer than true. I just wish there were more people who acted on the wise word's of Thumper's momma "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all". Not saying you shouldn't be honest, just saying that people can REALLY be cruel.

I think it is insecurity on the mockers part.
So, I just wish people could try to look at the good instead of all the negative.
