There's a quote on the internet, "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Don't be judgmental. Be kind." I believe that this is true, even if the person in question has told you about the battle they're fighting. It's often difficult, if not impossible, to fully explain what a person is experiencing. Our personal struggles cannot be explained or understood, except by God.
So I consider it absolutely essential to be kind to others, to give them the benefit of a doubt, cut the some slack, and try to understand their point of view. We may never understand their struggles, but we can understand that they struggle, and we can try to make that struggle easier rather than harder.
We all face challenges. We all want sympathy. We should all be kind.
