They say the people who exhibit the most kindness have experienced a lot of pain. The ones who act like they don’t need love, are the ones that need it more. The ones who take care of everyone else’s needs are the ones who need it most. And the people who smile a lot may be the one’s who cry when there is no one around.
This poetry hits me much…great.
If only he knew how much pained I experienced in life…and how much drums of tears were equivalent and exceeded with the smiles I showed…
Everybody has been through something & it’s a mistake to assume ours was worse than the others. We are quick to assume that our pain far exceeds anothers. We need to get over ourselves. And that’s the deeper meaning of the quote. Pain brings empathy & kindness. That’s why ex-cons r more likely to do ordination ministry than a self-righteous pew occupier.
Wow!!! This is so,so true!!! I was dumbstruck when I read this. It describes me to a “t”!!!
