The person you least expect…

May 2006. That was the start of a two-month downward spiral in my life. I was jobless, no money to speak of. There were prospective employers, but there were conditions I had to consider. Just imagine that, June was the start of the school year. It was the second week of June then and my brother was still un-enrolled. I was down, everything was black that time. Negative.

Do you know that a woman named Sandee saved me? She was someone whom I thought a bad person. Looking back, I realized that I never have proven that she was a bad person. Only, I let my then co-workers color my impression of hers. I was prejudiced and I let them brainwash me.

But when the going got tough, she held out her hand and helped me stand up again. Sandee extended help. I was really surprised that time. I actually almost cried in front of her. Her generosity was something I will always be thankful for. She was a blessing to me when I thought the future looked bleak. I will never forget Sandee’s kindness.

Think about this… is there a person in your life you are prejudiced of? I mean, think about those persons you do not like at all. Do they really deserve it or like me, you let others color your judgment?

Remember this, sometimes the person you least expect to stand beside you during the tough times can be the person you dislike the most.

Happy Friday everyone! And hug that person near you okay?
