What is at Home?

On of my favorite movies is the film "Crash". There are a couple things that I enjoyed about the film, one being the insight on the characters' lives. You get to see different people during their moments of triumph and failures. More importantly you see them out in public and what they go home to. The later, is something we do not see often in our lives. Even when we go over to their house, we still may not get the full picture. When we have guest over, we clean up the house, but we may also clean up ourselves. What really does go on in your home? I am not expecting you to answer this, but the reason why I brought this up was for you to think about what goes on in the lives of others and what others do not see in you. A lot of times we misunderstand each other because we only listen to ourselves and fail to learn what going on in the lives of others. So that jerk that was speeding and cutting you off, might be visiting a ill loved one, trying to make it somewhere on time, or maybe they really are just a bad and careless driver. You probably will never know. Please remember this. When you feel like no one understands you, you are probably not the only one that feels that way. Sad isn't?
