Poem about judging

You judge what you don't know
You don't see past the surface
Do you know their struggle
Do you know their story
You judge what you don't know
An unwed mother
Someone who's dress in  rags
Someone who has an addiction
Someone who's overweight
Someone who's skinny
They're not you and you're not them
We are different yet we are the same
We all judge
We all gossip
Do not say you don't
We all do it
We all sin
We all have a heart
We all bleed
We are born
We die
It is what is inside that counts
Do you know what happens when you
judge others
We are our own worst enemies
We are ourselves tear ourselves down
We lose track of the big picture
Live and learn
Love now
Did you ever think that woman felt unloved
Did you ever think that person used to be rich and lost
it all
Did you ever think that they might have an eating disorder
Did you ever think that is how they cope
We all cope different
We all feel different
Forgive now
Love now
Did you think that they did those drugs or alcohol
to numb the pain
What you say and what you do can hurt others
Did you ever think they might have been abused
Did you ever think they hate themselves
Do you think
You're not the judge and jury
We all do it
Don't say you don't ever
I've heard that line before
Words cut like a knife
Some lives are cut short
We all have scars inside
We all have problems
Did you ever think before you spoke
Did your ever think they might have lost their mom,
dad, brother, sister,daughter, son, grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles,
or friends
Did you ever think that when that soldier came back from
war that they can unsee what they've seen
Did you ever think that soldier might not ever come back
Did you ever think
We are our own worst enemies without needing help
Think before you judge

Stop giving the negative people attention

 Stop giving the negative people of the world so much attention.  Stop making negative people so famous for negative stuff. It's disgusting that the people who are doing horrible things are being given that attention. We as people see it in people's real lives and social media. Social media is where we need to start drawing the line. If we would take that attention away and ignored the bad behavior maybe just maybe they would see that it isn't good. People have turned negative into this is a social normal. It is not a social normal. Stop feeding the negative and toxic behavior. Stop saying it's normal.  I'd like to see more of you sharing people who are trying to succeed in life, build each other up, helping one another with small business or businesses, spreading love and light, helping people who are less fortunate, listening to others, being there for people who have depression, anxiety, PTSD,and much more.  So many could be successful if everyone supports everyo

Cursed House

  It's a dark stormy night this Halloween night. The clouds  are ominous.  You can feel the energy from the storm. 5 friends and me are staying in an abandoned house deep in the Bayou of Louisiana.  I had picked the place. My friends and I love spooky things. This year we are hoping for a good scare because last year we went to a cemetary and it was just a bunch of teenagers messing with us. We get to the abandoned house before it starts storming.  There is a fireplace in the living room and we light a fire to stay warm and cozy.  "Ari what is the plan?" my boyfriend asks. "I thought we would eat and check the house out after." My friends and I make sandwiches. We eat in the living room. While we are eating we hear kids laughing. We get up to see where it is coming from and find nothing.  It is  a big house you can get lost in because the house is made like a maze. "This house is strange," Joe says. "Did you know  it was made like a maze?&quo
