Bird’s eye view

Sometimes, as you go about the business of your day
something grabs your attention, jolts you out of your own world,
and you get a quick bird’s eye view into the lives of those around you.

You see a snippet of another person’s reality.
You form opinions.
Make judgements.

You never know what is really going on in that person’s life.
The challenges they face, the burdens they bear, the joys and the sorrows.

Once seen, never forgotten.
