Reenie's Ramblings

 Do we automatically assume the worst? When you see a family gathering, during a pandemic, do you automatically assume they don't care about the health of others? As a teacher, when a student completely fails a test, do you automatically assume the student didn't try? If you see someone who has gained a lot of weight, do you automatically assume they are "letting themselves go" or that they are eating too much and being lazy? If someone interrupts a lot, do you automatically assume they are rude? What if instead, we realized two things: 1. It's usually not our business anyway, so why assume anything; and 2. Most of the time, our assumptions are wrong. The family gathering from multiple destinations all got tested before they gathered. The student who failed the test was too afraid to ask for help with the concepts and simply didn't get it. The person who has gained a lot of weight has a major health issue going on that causes immense swelling and inflammation.
