As I was sitting enjoying a relaxing non eventful day

I heard someone speaking of the tragedy in their life they could not shed away

This got me to thinking about everyone we see on the street or maybe at traffic light

What is happening in their life maybe good or demons they are fighting to hide

We all have a story within us with chapters that change each and every day

Some chapters they are happy while others we wish would just go away

I’ve had some good ones in my story while others hard to bare

Where maybe we lost a love one or health it just wasn’t there

So as you pass by someone maybe a stranger or even a person you know well

Remember to not to pass judgement so quickly as they too are creating their own story to tell
