Looking past the Surface.



How much time to you spend getting to know someone? In a world where we have to make a good first impression with in the first few minutes of when we meet someone, you just don’t have much of a chance any more. Me, I’m very hard to get to know, some would say impossible. But those that take time to know me better, may find that I’m nothing like what they thought I was when they first met me. Notice I did not say I was good to know as you learn me and my personality, just different.

Here comes the Judge……….I wish I could stop making judgments about people when I know nothing about them. I can sum up someone in the first few minutes of laying eyes on them. And most of the time, I am wrong. But sometimes I’m right, so I keep on judging. Many people have much depth to them, so you have to look beyond the surface. And old Indian proverb once said: You can not judge a man until you have walk a mile in his moccasins. So walk with someone today and get to know them before you drop the gavel and pass judgment; you might be surprise what is beneath the surface of most people.
