Everyone has an untold story

Everyone has an untold story.
Everyone.
There is some amount of insecurity. of timidity. of fear. in everybody.

Not everyone shows it.
And sometimes, the stronger those weak feelings inside a person are?
The more they start looking like anything but the insecurity, timidity or fear!
They can come across more like rudeness. like arrogance. like conceitedness.

Don't buy it.
Don't fall into the trap that they are sometimes unknowingly setting for you.
It may look like they are trying to make you feel like they are better than you...they might feel intimidated.
It may look like they don't like you, want to upset you, want to make you mad....they may feel lonely.
It may look like they have it all together...they  may feel the exact opposite.

Everyone has an untold story.

Instead of disgustedly turning away the next time you see someone come across with negative, loud behavior
Remember that they have an untold story.
Remember that they might need you to listen instead of blow them off.
Remember that you might be exactly what they need to keep them from jumping off the ledge.

We all need someone to listen to us.
We all need someone to care about us.

Be that someone.
You literally never know the difference it will make.
