“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.” -Wendy Mass, The Candymakers
I used to see this guy out at parties. I never met him - never even spoke to him - but I admit, I judged him based on how he looked. I thought he was pretentious and probably full of himself. Then I came across something he wrote. Proof that you cannot assume (or judge) someone based on their appearance.
True Story: I had a baby girl by a woman I had only known for 6 weeks, though the Romance was short and rocky, the bitterness that followed was something I had not foreseen.
I have actually only had a chance to see this Sleeping Beauty twice since she has been born, my family has never met her, I’ve never been able to take her to a park to play, I never thought I would have to “Fight” to see this Gift that I created.
As I am preparing to take the mother to court for legal visitation rights, I’ve often wondered what goes through a woman’s mind when keeping a child away from a Father who wants to be a Father. That answer isn’t important, but I know the lesson is to meet Bitterness with Forgiveness, Pettiness with Patience, Negativity with Love, and Obstacles with Perseverance.
In my experience Love will always prevail and GOD will never fail.
