the thing about life is

that's it's a constant work in progress

isn't it?

so sometimes it is important to remember to give people the benefit of the doubt, not be too quick to judge, not be too slow to offer support
.
(of course, this applies to oneself as well as to "people")

Oh, you're a smart one.

And OH boy did I get the privilege of being on the side of 'not to slow to support and not so quick to judge' a NUMBER of times today.

Were you that mouse in the corner? :-)

'Contempt prior to investigation'--uncool.

And that yellow fishie and blue fishie that wander off away from the herd.....LOL NAUGHTY fishies.

Thinkin' "c'mere little fishies" might be what himself wakes up to this morning. LOLOL

I try not to judge people, I feel that maybe if you walk'd in their shoes, what they do and how the do it just might make sense.

chirping birdie out the the window....at 5:39 this morning.

they should have their little beaks full of bugs and not be waking me up.

I'm too slow to be able to judge people. By the time I decide about them they've turned round and shown a different side.
And often, it looks a bit like me!
Ooh no. No judgements thank you!

(Have to agree with you though Mel about the june bugs)
