What if that person driving recklessly was rushing to visit their dying parent? What if that person who behaved rudely was thinking about a sick child or mate. We rarely know the reasons behind others’ actions. If we did, we’d likely be more tolerant and compassionate. Our experience of life improves when we avoid burdening ourselves with negative opinions, judgments and criticisms, especially, when they are ill-informed and inaccurate. We create a better world and a better life when we assume that, considering the particularities of their circumstances, everyone is doing…

The best they can.
