Never had enough

People can never seem to be satisfied, always searching for something they don’t have. When I was younger, I used to be quick to judge the decisions of people I knew, or even those I didn’t. But as you grow older and experience more in life, you start to understand things better. For example, when a man cheats, people are quick to call him horrible for doing such a thing. But if we look deeper, there’s usually a reason behind it—unless, of course, he’s just a complete idiot. On the other hand, when a woman cheats, people jump to harsh conclusions and criticism. They’ll call her names or judge her character. But let’s be real—how do we know what she’s going through? We’re not in her shoes, and we don’t understand the struggles in her life. Before we judge others, maybe we should try putting ourselves in their position. Who knows? Maybe if we were in their shoes, we’d end up doing something even worse.
