People can be surprising. Sometimes there is a lot more to someone than you originally thought, and sometimes there is less, a lot less. It’s easy to make assumptions about people because of our own expectations and how we treat people or view the world.
In reality, everyone is vastly different. People can only react to things in the best way they know how. Experiences change people; we grow and evolve as we get older and learn how to deal with many of the situations and emotions we encounter in our own way. Remember that not everyone has had the same journey as you and not everyone views life in the same way you do.
Some people are extremely self-aware and empathetic, while others lack that entirely. Some people wear their heart on their sleeve and share every thought, and others are a complete mystery and you can never really tell what goes on inside their mind. It can explain why we get so hurt by someone and the other person has no idea, or how sometimes we can say or do things that hurt someone else without knowing.
Your journey is unique; your journey brought you here. You hold the power to surprise people with your huge heart in the best possible way, no matter how many times you’ve been surprised in the worst possible way.
