Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." (Plato)

We are all in the trench and we are all a little wounded. For some it is physical pain: cancer, arthritis, migraine headaches, etc…For others it is moral pain due to their own sins or the sins of those whom they love. For some, it is psychological or emotional pain arising from situations that they simply cannot control. But everyone, without exception, is carrying some very real cross…be kind and lighten their burden!
